1. يا من سما بذكاءِ فِطنتهِ

    على أَوصافِ واصِف

    O you who, through your keen discernment, soared

    Beyond the descriptions of any describer.

  2. مَن سارَ خِيفَ اكشِف لَنا

    يا ذا الحِجَى ماذا يُرادِف

    “Whoever traveled was feared”—reveal to us,

    O possessor of reason, what it is synonymous with.
