1. قالوا بَلغت المُنى بِالمَدح في حسنِ

    ربِّ المَعارف وَالإقبال وَالفطنِ

    They said, “You have attained your wishes by praising Hasan,

    master of learning, good fortune, and discernment.”

  2. فَقُلتُ ذاكَ بِتَوفيقِ الإِلَه وَمن

    سِواه أَولى بِمَدحي مِن بَني زَمَني

    So I said, “That is through God's aid; and who

    besides him is more worthy of my praise among the sons of my age?”
