1. If my tears did not mix with your days,
my blood would have merely claimed.

2. For you is a witness from my crying,
so ask the darkness and its stars about where I lie down.

3. You punished me for a crime I did not commit,
unjustly, and how many reapers have not sown?

4. And you denied your apparition from visiting a lover,
you tried to destroy him yet he did not resist.

5. And the slanderer led you astray, were it not for folly,
the youth would not have been a reason that did not betray.

6. So you combined the heaviness of aloofness to yearning,
above reproach, to a heart in pain.

7. Oh you who travels while the heart between its saddlebags
guides it to preserve the lost covenant.

8. Why did you not stand by your lover protecting
the covenant of love in him the stance of one bidding farewell?

9. How is the path to peace while you did not prepare
my mind for me nor leave my heart with me?

10. So time that passed watered me with bitterness,
aiming at life and watering a long bitterness.

11. Yet I will have patience over time and its injustice,
the patience of one dignified who did not submit.

12. And I will wear from composure a coat
of barrenness that mocks continuous following.

13. And I will thank tribulations that threw
my possessions to the most splendid king.

14. So the shades of a shining white dawn draped me
adding the garb of glory, pure of intention.

15. And I saw the best scene and experienced the most
pleasant tidings and settled the highest position.

16. In the shade of lordly bright-faced Samaidha
from the lineage of lordly bright-faced Samaidha,

17. the most noble king who offers generosity
from his palm, naturally without affectation,

18. A king who has on the day of turmoil renowned
stands not claimed by pretenders,

19. Smiling on every frowning day,
brightening in every overshadowed adversity,

20. Quenching with his palm the heat of battle
from the heart of every armed man,

21. Swords at his right hand and his resolute
horses in war, the concerning of one defeating and masked,

22. And he has often shattered armor with his palm
after the stuffing of the coat of mail between the ribs,

23. A king, if you seek rain from the sea of his right hand,
it pours on you with a shower that does not diminish,

24. Beautiful are its landmarks and how many a shower
erred so poured in a desolate plain.

25. And often he overwhelmed the battle with three
in the back of a winged purebred.

26. With a deaf white spirited and soul-piercing
bright-minded one escorted.

27. How many a straitened stance, were it not for his patience in it
the eggs would not have had room to settle.

28. Of a people who enacted benevolence and guided
the meek to a clear path.

29. I came upon him while the torrent had reached perfidy in me
and the blossoms of life were dwindling.

30. So I attained from his blessings that which has no limit
to my hopes and to which my ambitions did not aspire.

31. And it made tribulations refrain from assaulting my abode
and the turns of fate from encircling my square.

32. Freely bestowing before being asked
and bestowal is the bestowal of the initiator.

33. So I came to recite his bestowal extolling
and his bounty is like pouring floods.

34. And I had called the echo of nobleness but it did not answer
so I thank an echo that answered and was not called.
