1. The pillar of faith, Ala, remains,
So he is the hope of worshippers.

2. As long as he rises for us,
He is the illumination of countries.

3. The pillar of a religion for him
Is to depend on his piety.

4. So loving him is Sunnah,
And leaning away from him is apostasy.

5. There is no true religion
Except through his support.

6. And none who believes rightly
Would oppose him.

7. Unique in a state
Of widespread unity.

8. Singular in glory
And excellence, what glory!

9. An opponent whose palm
Is like one who is generous when he gives.

10. His lightnings for the enemy
Are the bare, polished swords.

11. And his flood overflows
Every stream.

12. Glory did not encompass him
Other than a brave, generous man.

13. He has a hand that has not ceased
To issue great favours.

14. His custom is that
If the honorable start, he returns.

15. Before the lands were empty
He laid its foundation and pillow.

16. So today there is no wonder
If they gave him leadership.

17. Guarding a state
Who treats it kindly.

18. Its chest is his chest
And he is to it like a heart.

19. His determination
Alleviates its harsh afflictions for it.

20. Sometimes he contends for it
And other times he fights for it.

21. His pens without it
Gather the scattered summits.

22. And the whites of drawn swords
And the steeds of the valley.

23. And the brown hilts
Borne on the forelocks of steeds.

24. From fear of him they awake
Constantly quaking.

25. His opinions guide them
Rightly to the path of guidance.

26. An opponent of two armies
Of strong leadership.

27. An army and opinion with him
Defeats the troops of enemies.

28. If heads become ripe
He reaps them in harvest.

29. O you who benefited the land
With your rising, what benefit!

30. Your wealth enriched them
Beyond equipment or supplies.

31. So the army is a virtue, then,
For the kingdom on the day of plunder.

32. O you whose opinion
Is relied on in difficulties!

33. And whose plains
Are accustomed to generosity.

34. A face whose water
Quenches every thirsty one.

35. And speech whose beauty
Increases with debate.

36. And manner that resembled
A drink of fresh, cool water.

37. From it affection for him
Is implanted in each loving heart.

38. So each word of his
Is appreciated for its beauty.

39. And each meaning of his
Is admired for its artistry.

40. And every blessing that came
To be obtained from his palm.

41. The eyes of his enviers
Are reddened with wakefulness.

42. As if their eyelids
Are their shields against spears.

43. He is the resolute one
Who subdues the stubborn people.

44. Fulfilling covenants in peace
And frightening in calamity and arms.

45. Of generous character whose mention
Is praised by every praiser.

46. The paths to his patrons
Are blocked to the stingy.

47. But his purpose cannot be prevented,
Only almost.

48. He destroys his wealth
For the sake of glory built.

49. The palms of the people thereby
Become full after emptiness.

50. As if they are springs
And the irrigation from them is slumber.

51. His structure with bricks
Makes the inanimate speak.

52. There is no deviation
From his path by the praise of people.

53. It picks him out with dew
While praise is the game that is hunted.

54. Below you, a carriage
That every singer travels.

55. Whose proud verses
Are repeated until the return.

56. From its circulation there wafts
Its narrators in every assembly.

57. One who is generous must necessarily
Be praised by one who is skilled.

58. And the sword of glory has none
But the poems of maidens.

59. The markets of our poems
Have exaggerated in loss.

60. So be angry with us angrily
To fertilize that which is desired.

61. And be pleased to visit us
After distance.

62. For us to become accustomed
To return each year.

63. The pillar of guidance visited,
So his success is increasing.

64. A month glories for you
In your pride of custom.

65. And his happiness took him
To it, what a taking!

66. A noble month for it
The scent of bliss and meadows.

67. Its day silencing
From food for devotion.

68. And its night whitening the people
After mourning.

69. Its lantern was taught
To light from your mind.

70. The abundant light
Upon lowlands and swamps.

71. It scrubbed its garment
So it has no blackness.

72. Thus the sins of the people
Are erased like erasing ink.

73. So remain for its like
What fate has repeated.

74. Its days will come to you
In power, constantly.

75. In blessings that meet
Returning with parting.

76. And a state whose life
Has no end.

77. Lofty in its shade
Attaining the ultimate desire.
