1. I sacrifice myself for you, O Abdullah, in my mind
After being distant and separated from you.

2. You have a group of eloquent writers
Who have fulfilled the right of visitation and affection.

3. And I reckon their day, if you do not find them,
Coincides with an invocation from them out of commitment.

4. So how many clear camels have journeyed,
And others from you with kindness have departed.

5. This one takes the first draughts of my water skin,
And that one takes the remaining sips of my water bag,

6. Quenching the thirst of every valley and plain,
And watering every settled and nomad place.

7. I invoked them for you, and you were among those
Whom we appoint regarding noble deeds.
