1. عادلةُ الأجزاءِ قد بُرِّئَتْ

    من خطأِ النّاقِصِ والزَّائِدْ

    Balanced in its parts, it has been freed

    from the fault of deficiency and excess.

  2. والضربُ والصوتُ وحِسّاهُما

    خارِجَةٌ في قرنٍ واحدْ

    And the striking, the sound, and their two sensations

    emerge at one and the same moment,

  3. مثلُ خُطُوطٍ جئْنَ من نُقْطَةٍ

    إلى محيطِ الدائرِ القاصِدْ

    like lines that came from a point

    to the circumference of a well-proportioned circle.
