1. Since the sword of the onlooker has raged among the lovers,
Raging aimlessly like a worn out old man.

2. It has wounded my heart with a sharp glance,
Gushing out violently with a languid look.

3. I did not know I would see the turns of fate,
From eyes that tell of piercing eyes.

4. Woe to you, oh eyes! For you have
Destroyed us with the destruction of a raging lion.

5. The eyes appear charming in their movements,
Dressed in the garb of an enchanting, sleepless beauty.

6. The moon, when the virgins look upon his beauty,
Becomes virginal, excused for his shyness.

7. He socializes and connects with his beloved in love,
While being coy is the trait of a fleeing gazelle.

8. He spends the evening conversing with me,
While the stars gaze at us, staying up all night.

9. I continued to seduce him and sip his saliva,
Until I took him to the height of my desire.

10. Blessed are the days of union, for they
Have passed, but on the wings of a bird.

11. And if I remember the evenings I spent with him,
My tears flowed down my cheeks.

12. And nights adorned with lightning, I was
Accompanied by my beloved, conversing with me.

13. If the one I love is absent and meeting him is difficult,
My heart does not cease to ache in his love.

14. I have regret for the one I adore and yearning
That has ignited the burning embers within me.

15. I have no hope left that I aspire to attain
Except the favor of the hand of Abdul Qadir.

16. If the sea of favor did not exist, it would not
Bring the hopeful the dew and jewels.

17. And you see the ships carrying across the world
The news of the excellence of his enduring words.

18. He is ambitious and determined among men,
His determination made him needless of a judging arbiter.

19. He revived the discourse of grace after its death
And the beauty of that bygone time.

20. He who enjoys his Paradise of grace
Has left the enemy in the pits of graves.

21. The proof of his noble traits is the serenity of his soul,
For the essence of a thing is seen from its appearance.

22. He has traits that we recite in praising him,
I have written their virtues in every book.

23. He pardons the sinner and forgives his sin,
And pardoning is the best act of the Able.

24. I have not seen among people a more generous hero,
In his hospitality and in defeating the wicked.

25. With wisdom, I describe what his wisdom attempts,
The wise man stands perplexed before him.

26. Alas, time will never bring his equal,
He was born to the barren mother of time.

27. He comes to the world with every wonder,
And with every noble virtue in amazing youth.

28. In his face are signs of every merit,
He meets the chaste with gladdening tidings.

29. Life itself is his guest with offerings in his right hand,
And with his sword he killed the treacherous enemy.

30. A man of ambition and courage in times of strife,
In war, he rages like a crushing eagle.

31. They, who collected courage and glory,
Attained the heights towering over others.

32. And if you come to his door in need,
He enriches you with abundant generosity.

33. He extends his hands to people generously,
And his giving is like pouring rain.

34. It relates the conversations of generosity
To the hopeful from an endless spring.

35. Dressed in generosity, girded with honor,
With might and pride from his Lord.

36. I swear by the polished sword in his grip,
In times of battle, and by his overflowing sea.

37. I have never seen his equal among men
In his exalted rank and stature.

38. The helper of the outspoken when called to confront
Dangers, the quickest to take initiative.

39. How many visitors has the river of vigor at his door,
From his sublime grace and source.

40. O Master, whose favors are around my neck,
And whose praise is upon my flesh.

41. Take this poem from a mute man,
Who, praising you, is given an eloquent tongue.

42. You were congratulated on the new feast, and you still
Are the happiness of the generous, despite the wicked.

43. You remain prosperous, supported,
Your appointed time is in humility and prominence.
