1. Tell Zayn al-Din about his poet
Who stumbled in bestowing favors and kindnesses

2. O generous one who has never ceased
To uphold the duties of generosity, collectively and individually

3. In my life I desire wheat, not
In my death, my shroud and coffin

4. So send it today, urgently
Or pay me today the price

5. And remain, O pillar of glory and sublimity
As long as leaves blow in the highest branches
