1. في قريشٍ فتىً يخيره الجو

    دُ فلم يعدهُ إلى ذي نوالِ

    Among Quraysh is a youth whom generosity chooses;

    it has not passed him by for another giver.

  2. جدَّدت كفه لموسى بن حفصٍ

    من عطايا ما أخلقتهُ الليالي

    His hand renewed for Musa ibn Hafs

    those gifts that the nights had worn away.

  3. أرفعُ الأكرَمينَ في المجدِ بَيتاً

    حلَّ بالمَكرُماتِ أعلى المعالي

    Among the noblest, his house stands highest in glory;

    through noble deeds, he has settled on the loftiest heights.

  4. كل يومٍ له نوالٌ ينادي

    مسمعاً من يبيع مدحاً بمالِ

    Each day his bounty calls out,

    making itself heard by whoever sells praise for money.
