1. I am under the protection of the generous one, safe
From the protector, the passionate lover, the man of resolve

2. I confided my concerns to him with the resolve of a spearhead
My burden weighed heavy on the days

3. With the sword of speech and opinion I strike
When swords are unsheathed from scabbards

4. Majid whose care for me was excessive until
I imagined it was but a dream

5. Whichever horizon I headed towards
I found it before me

6. Each day I see the bestowal of my father Nasr
Upon us effortlessly with the slightest words

7. I have not ceased to be in his esteemed, generous custody
Until I thought that I was in his custody

8. O Sulaiman, may God prosper a land
In which you are at the start of the clouds

9. By my life, I already have enough of your
Supplications when I was living in Damascus

10. I, thriving, in Homs in every type
Of abundance and profusion

11. Every youth I fear when I see him
Approaching, that he will greet me with peace

12. Raising his palm to my righteousness but I do not
Think he came to me for anything but food

13. So by my right, unless you single out Abul Tayyib
From me with the finest greetings

14. And my praise now and later
My thanks offered to the Servant of Peace
