1. من زارَ مُنْقَطِعَ العَلائِقِ حِيشَا

    يَغْدوا بأصنافِ العَطا مَدْهوشا

    Whoever visits Hisha, free of attachments,

    will be astounded by the many kinds of bounty.

  2. عَمِّي عَلِيٌّ مَدَّ في ساحاتِها

    منهُ بِساطاً للنَّدا مَفْروشا

    My uncle Ali spread within its courtyards

    a carpet of his own, laid out for generosity.

  3. وأقامَ من طَوْرِ العِنايةِ فَوْقَهُ

    وَجهاً بأنوارِ الفُيوضِ بَشوشا

    And from the Mount of Providence he raised above it

    a face beaming with the lights of spiritual outpourings.

  4. كم أصْلَحَتْ بالله نَفْحَةُ قَلْبِهِ

    قَلْباً بِسوءِ ضَميرِه مَغْشوشا

    How often, through God, has a breath from his heart healed

    a heart tainted by its own evil intent!

  5. أهْدَيْتُهُ دينارَ نَظْمي جَيِّداً

    بِرُقومِ سِرِّ جُدودِهِ مَنْقوشا

    I offered him the fine dinar of my verse,

    engraved with the markings of his forefathers' secret.

  6. أنا ضامِنٌ وَصَلَ الحِبالِ لِخالِصٍ

    قد زارَ مُنْقَطعَ العَلائِقِ حِيشَا

    I guarantee the joining of the cords for a sincere soul

    who has visited Hisha, free of attachments.
