1. O Abdu Al-Ilah Mu'adh, I am
Concealed from you in passionate turmoil

2. I recalled the immensity of my quest, that
We risk with resolute souls

3. Does one like me get shaken by misfortunes
And panic at meeting with doves?

4. Had time confronted me as an entity
My sword would have bloodied its hair's parting

5. My will has not been achieved by the nights
Nor has it marched with my reins in its hands

6. When horses' eyes fill with me
Woe to awakening and to sleep!
