1. سَهلُ المَواهِبِ لا تُقاتِلُ نَفسُهُ

    عَن مالِهِ حَتّى يُقالَ جَوادُ

    Free with his gifts, his soul does not struggle

    over his wealth merely to be called generous.

  2. لَكِنَّهُ سَمحُ الضَمائِرِ سابِقٌ

    بِالزادِ حينَ يُعَلَّلُ الأَزوادُ

    Rather, he is generous at heart, the first

    to offer food when provisions are eked out.

  3. عَذبُ الخَلائِقِ كُلَّما جَرَّبتَهُ

    فيما تُحِبُّ رَأَيتَهُ يَزدادُ

    Sweet in character, whenever you put him to the test

    in what you love, you find him growing still better.
