1. قد تم بالنقص والتركيب ما طلبوا

    وأنشأوه بتمزيج وتعفينِ

    What they sought was indeed achieved through reduction and combination,

    and they brought it into being through mixing and putrefaction.

  2. نالوا بأيسر حظ من صناعتهم

    غنى وملكاً ولا ملك السلاطينِ

    With the smallest share of their craft, they attained

    wealth and dominion that not even the dominion of sultans could rival.
