And they were saved from adversity and harm.

2. God supported the father of loyalty with His victory,
The support of the Caliphate, the master of princes.

3. So my heart was relieved from the burning of separation
And the blaze of the fire of passion and sickness.

4. Time has returned to the freshness of its life,
And adversities were removed with joy.

5. His victorious sword connects to the follower
Like the connection of unwilling love to estrangement.

6. Every day for the enemies is an affliction from him
That destroys them, and the sword of annihilation.

7. So when they saw him approaching,
They fled like frightened sheep from fierce wolves.

8. Slain and killed, and those who escaped destruction
Were imprisoned in humiliation by him.

9. The days smiled after their gloominess through him,
And the light shone through the darkness because of him.

10. So pray to eliminate the anxiety and distress
You saw yesterday and the day before.

11. The lion who pounces on prey has recovered
From all his complaints and pains.

12. And victory has come to him from a God who bestows favor,
Who always decides what is best for him.

13. You have exhausted their trickery and ended their deception
Without fatigue or exhaustion.

14. Your swords scattered their palms in the open space
As if they were pebbles in the courtyard.

15. And you turned your horses snatching their souls
Without delay or tardiness.

16. You are the greatest in the times, and to you
The necks of the honorable nobles have bowed.

17. The emirate refused to marry anyone but him
After being adamantly proposed to.

18. And praise disobeyed, it does not give obedience
Except to him, in infatuation and adoration.

19. He plays with the courage of brave men,
Playing like an entertainer who has won passions.

20. A king who surpassed kings with his might
And his acceptance from the master of advisers.

21. Muhammad bin Yahya revived a state
With sound determination and correct opinion.

22. The adornment of writing and the son of one whose
Writers of caliphs have bowed to.

23. After the enemies thought that he
Would be defeated by whoever opposed him.

24. When Islam was afflicted with a deadly disease
That would not have been cured without a remedy.

25. So he threw them with the arrows of his opinion
That are guided without a guide, to the intestines.

26. And he saw the ropes of his opinion as partners for them,
So they plunged into its abyss like a lost camel.

27. In every important matter the view of an experienced one
Is hoped for, whose sword is decisive in curing this disease.

28. Ask with the prince and his sword whoever desires him
Or provokes him in the intense heat of battle.

29. His growling, blood dripping claws - whenever
Misfortunes from the blood of enemies arise.

30. So it is as if on the day of battle, he is
A shining full moon in the fortunate rising of the sky.

31. And it is as if his leaders around him
Are planets, like the constellation Gemini.

32. Dressed in the gown of patience, underneath which
Lies a heart like a silent rock.

33. His fear dispersed the enemies, so it is as if they are
The ostrich flock in the barren plain.

34. Or a flock of wild cats damaged by the echo
So they fell thirsty into the plains.

35. The men attacked them, so they surrendered
To captivity and humiliation, acting like women.

36. And the prince came with might and awe,
Strutting between wealth and singing.

37. Baghdad prospered with him after its gloom,
And wore from him clothes of comfort.

38. This was during the days of Bajkam - how much
Sincerity, wisdom and excellent testing he has!

39. The hands of others darken in his war,
So he whitens them with shackles he places on them.

40. The banners of your might on the day of your war were raised up
And hung with the stars in the sky, due to their height.

41. You have excelled in nobility over the children of the Prophet and his in-laws,
In the merit of their status, O people of purity.

42. You ascended the steps of glory, rising
Above the grandees and nobles.
