1. I traveled so let a lightning flash from the full moon appear
Some here thought Joshua was traveling

2. And let your beautiful image and its uncle
Be an illusion from the dreadful night at dawn

3. Stand and tell me about the state of your beauty in prosperity
And about the state of my love for you in my poverty

4. Your brother the moon told a joke
On the face that beauty is your paternal uncle in abundance

5. The sea of love burned me since its sea
Take my hand, I drowned O doll of the palace

6. As for the chaste love I have no one to blame
For loving you, rather all people accepted my excuse

7. And they did not witness your beauty, but rather
I described you in general in the poetry of verse

8. And they knew from the grace of my Lord my nature
That I have not lied in prose or verse

9. And I do not praise anyone except those who have
The qualities of praise, thanks and gratitude

10. Like my praise of the commendable Prince, with what
Is appropriate when recited with his noble descriptions

11. And if I am a stranger one day in praising him
There is no shame that I talk about the dignified sea

12. He is humble, the best of people seek his awe
And forbearance, the weakest of people seek refuge in him

13. The lineage of the individuals of the past time
As it is known, the ancestors of this era

14. Virtue in him, steady noble origin
The famous father and grandfather in pride

15. The cheerful glory is his merit
And his high birth from which it flows

16. And from the like of him, origin, merit and peerage
For him, and good opinion, deed and mention

17. If the night companions recite his praise
A scent of perfume emanates from him

18. If the birds knew one of his poems
They would sing it atop their green branches

19. He has excelled in both heights, and yet
He whitens the face of justice in the rotation of time

20. He has a sound nature and ambition
With which the greatest matter is fulfilled

21. And a knowledge intertwined with insight
He almost knows the secrets of people through it

22. Generosity told of his flowing generosity
The lightning of generosity flashes from humans through him

23. If the unjust comes to him, he returns losing
If the wronged comes to him, he returns victorious

24. I heard what adorns my words by mentioning it
And I hope my news increases through it

25. So my heart remains delighted, blessed
Happy, long lasting, with a long tail and life
