1. الفضلُ والنبلُ والإقدامُ والباسُ

    مناقبٌ عجزَت عن جمعها الناس

    Excellence, nobility, boldness, and valor—

    Are virtues that people could not bring together.

  2. كانَت معانيَ لا تبدو لها صورٌ

    والآن قد رسِمَت والرسمُ عبّاسُ

    They were abstract qualities with no visible forms;

    And now they have been depicted, and the portrait is Abbas.
