1. O friend, can you convey a greeting
To the fair-browed victorious king?

2. Stand where souls whisper in awe
And the spring of faces runs dry.

3. There is the lion who I relied on
With his sword, faith and world of God.

4. His dress is soft and delicate
His den polished and refined.

5. Bravery shines on his serene face
Like a spear hinting at his gentleness.

6. Behind his vigilance is seasoned composure
With Mighty severity and tranquility.

7. He whose strife for God rings true,
He whose certainty in God is sound,

8. He who time was miserly to match,
His lofty den exceeds all others.

9. This is the pillar of faith and son of its pillar
In lineage, as pure as hardened steel.

10. He whose threshold kings stand at,
He whose oath thousands swear by.

11. King of all kings, crowned and fair,
No betrayal or fickleness to fear.

12. If he arrives, ancestral honor accompanies him,
If he travels, assured victory is his companion.

13. Time is a failure for those who defy him,
The Almighty in heaven aids him.

14. Religion bears witness he is its champion
And paganism knows he is its vanquisher.

15. He continues to vow to scatter its followers
While God abhors weakening his oath.

16. Until he cast its crooked pillar down,
Toppling its lofty and firm base.

17. He opened Rahab with ease yesterday,
Unlocking the gates of an endlessly protected kingdom.

18. The prince entered it and for his victory
An auspicious, blessed dove came forth.

19. Tomorrow Antioch will be his
A famed and clear conquest for all time.

20. He stabbed armies with his wisdom and blade
On the day of battle, their sharpened tips did not fail.
