1. يا أوحد العصر علا وعنصرا

    وبحر فضل بالعلوم زخرا

    O peerless one of the age in eminence and lineage,

    and sea of excellence, overflowing with learning!

  2. أفحمني شكرك عن أن أشكرا

    نثرت من ذكري علي جوهرا

    Your praise left me speechless, unable to give thanks.

    You scattered jewels upon me in your praise of me.

  3. طوقتني درا وفاح عنبرا

    وطاب من فيك فصار سكرا

    You adorned my neck with pearls, and it breathed the fragrance of ambergris.

    And from your mouth it grew sweet, turning into sugar.
