1. The glance of your eyes makes ruin its partisans
And swords whose edges are sharp blades

2. They have vanquished the lover without vengeance
So in his heart there are traces

3. An occurrence in passion that ransacked souls
The full moons adorned them, the full moons

4. A passion that veils conceal from it
Images that for the eyes are guards

5. The Arab pronounced between them, so which affliction
Jasmine and roses have caused

6. We have averted our sights from them in fear
When their glances have cast at us the sights

7. These have not set the fire and know
That in the return they are for drinking fire

8. The night of Khawarnaq fell short in beauty
And its long nights are brief

9. An early bloomer grazing the meadows of pleasure while green
And enjoyments amongst it are maidens

10. When the faces of days in it are meadows
And waters of bliss in it are wine

11. Gardens in which roses are confused
And borders over which perfumes flowed

12. Whenever foreheads spun with daybreak
Their night turned to them with dew

13. Its dawn is from the gazelles a night
And its cheeks from the cheeks a day

14. A land that rain clouds were in no need for
They are from the comfort of the prince saturated

15. Its shade is soft and the blossoms of its vegetation fragrant
And snakes in it flow

16. Where our roses have no withering, nor the promises
Deceit, nor the yearning burning

17. Warding off the good of mankind is a face
In it tranquility and dignity

18. Praise does not deflect from it nor do ardent souls
Refrain from its blossoms

19. Ask Dalami how he saw Sinjar
When Sinjar took pride in itself

20. When in its land the dry wood met
Fire and a storm that stirs it

21. A people who were existence in the morning and in the evening
Nonexistence, and in it lessons are taken

22. Their time did not proceed to them, but they were
Driven by steeds toward it and marched on

23. The black spears charged at them
So the murderous spears were saturated by them

24. In a wilderness where the armor was exposed
And it from the sheen of iron shining

25. A stand, if Chosroes looked upon it
He would cower with defeat and despair in it

26. The kingdom was restored through a warrior of war
Raising through his banners the Supreme

27. A lion in iron where lions feel estranged by him
And visitors feel safe

28. Ugly is striking faces but
Your swords made good news of it

29. And praises adorned you until they are
The song of singers and poets

30. The abodes craved for you so if you could
Take a journey, the abodes would journey to you

31. Bounties to the swords whose gratitude will not expire
Or lifespans run out

32. We were cleared as we cleared our enemies
So for us is acquittal and for them perishment

33. Death obeyed you against the enemy
And fate flowed with wishes to you

34. Lead not an army for you are from determination and might
A dragging army

35. O you blaming me for veiling my cheek
Giving the cheeks is disgrace and shame

36. My hopes in kings are difficult but
My hopes in the father of wishes are easiness
