Translated by Ghayth Armanazi
The most precious companion of those of noble breed;
Do not therefore be without, whether residing or travelling
A planet should you seek to discern its value
Surpasses the worth of gold and captures its hue;
Compact in size, yet if you search within
For the essence of knowledge, boundless becomes its scope;
Its complexion draws the allure
Of those of precise attention and true vision;
With it you carry the Heavens
While your fingers caress its movements;
Earth is its home from whence it delivers
The treasures of the Sky.
