1. Reconciliation has settled what the enemies desired,
And the tongues of envious spoke of it,

2. And souls intended while you set right
What was between them and what they sought.

3. What plotters whispered became
More affection among dear friends.

4. And the talk of slanderers has no authority
Over loved ones or opponents.

5. A saying succeeds with a person when
It encounters a passion in the heart.

6. By my life, you were shaken by what was said
Yet you held fast to the strongest bond.

7. Men counselled you though you were more guided
Towards rectitude than they to proper guidance.

8. One giving advice may hit the mark though he did not strive
And miss what's right despite his diligence.

9. You attained what is not won by force of arms
And you protected lives within bodies.

10. Spears in their standings turned about you
And the unsheathed remained in their scabbards.

11. They did not know, when they saw your heart dwelling
Among them, that its view tended to run away.

12. So your view, which no view
Learnt or derived, redeemed.

13. If wisdom is not innate temperament
The passage of time does not make one forbearing.

14. With this and its like, Kafoor, you shut
And set an example for all unruly leaders.

15. And he who obeyed you is not
Of rebellious nature.

16. You're a loving father, a devoted son,
More compassionate than one who yearns for his children.

17. May no harm come your way from those who wish you harm
And may ruin be restricted to the ruined.

18. You two are of one body and spirit,
No need for soothsayers.

19. When there is delinquency in the system,
Disorder falls on the hearts of the unruly.

20. Delinquency gloats with the deviants, its enemies,
And the Lord of the Persians was cured of madness.

21. He appointed the Yazidi in Basra until they scattered
Across the country.

22. And kings were like yesterday, so near,
And others like a cross and its sister pole, so far.

23. We take refuge in you from them,
From the guile of every rebel and enemy.

24. And we obey your noble order to separate
The resolve of spears between steeds.

25. Or else, would the guardian be more wretched than the foe
With the ordnance you possess?

26. Will what the enemies say in every club delight him,
Now that the past is gone?

27. Love, care and intimacy prevented
Your hearts from harbouring any grudges.

28. And there are rights that soften the heart for the heart
Even if embedded in stones.

29. Thus the kingdom shone gloriously to beholders,
Thankful for your sound judgement.

30. In it are your hands victorious
And people's hands over their hearts.

31. This is the state of nobility, compassion, glory,
Radiance, generosity and helping hands.

32. It darkened a moment as the sun darkens
Then its light increased.

33. Time jostles its pillar away from harm
With an unruly hero set on his purpose.

34. A unifier, a follower through, faithful and adamant,
Learned, wise, valiant and generous.

35. People cleared the path of Abu Misk
And necks of servants bowed to him.

36. How can the path not be cleared for a torrent,
Too narrow for its gushing waters?
