1. O most generous of womenkind
What indigent soul has not been revived by your gifts?

2. What house of yours, with its kindness and hospitality
To the thriving, has not been furnished?

3. You who with her benevolence made
A companion for the lonely refuge.

4. Since the days have ceased their darkness
Your palm did not fail to give or strike.

5. Since we arrived at your abundant sea of kindness
We did not thirst, we did not want.

6. My generosity is hesitant lest
I offend you with its inadequacy.

7. For I have dependents who want
Nothing of the fruits of life but apricots.

8. They delight in shabby Imamite robes
Like unblemished faces that were never struck.

9. You will remain as long as the morning breeze blows gently
And the wine sparkles for the reveler.

10. And you live for me as long as the horizon in the dusk
Resembles the belly of a dappled mare.
