1. Your swords have blocked the pass between the two heights,
And opened with your opinions two dams.

2. You have sent from your two servants in the forest of spears,
Two lions to the enemies, tearing.

3. Two javelins expelling, nay two swords from
Two polished blades, nay two blazing stars.

4. The enemies were struck down by their sharpness, as though
They were two thunderbolts upon the enemies.

5. They marched so terror marched ahead of them,
Two armies not relying on the two armies.

6. They tore through the roads with two great powers, as though
Their stars rose upon two nights.

7. I hope the spears will bring you good tidings,
And the white swords from two different faces,

8. So you remain shaded by the pouring of gifts,
A refuge for the two bounties, most sweet.

9. You are the life, and if the Life-Giver should take
A handful, your handful is the cure for the two afflictions,

10. And if the swords sprout striking blades,
You are the polished double-edged sword.

11. Forgiveness and bounty walk about and are nourished
By their two beautiful blossoms, most fragrant.

12. If the servant of God were to see what your
Right hand built, he would be delighted.

13. God has caused you joy in your brother, and it was not
For the Throne of Honor with two pillars to incline.

14. A victory that humiliated the family of Persia more than you
With outstanding swords or rejecting spears.

15. They did not try the lofty fortress in their treachery,
Until they fell as corpses upon the two fortresses.

16. Its swords stirred against them and the waves
Of the Tigris with two currents were made gold.

17. A victory whose dawn shone so I saw you both
As two gates for joy opened wide.

18. My saying, when kings are anguished by a setback,
Or their unity is rent by the verge of separation:

19. You two have taken the place of the two brilliant ones, so you are
More worthy of the position of those two stars.
