1. Tell the dwellings in the yellow sand dunes
I watered the passing rain clouds

2. God has guided the Caliph when he built
The house of the Caliph for the most eloquent orator

3. He is the Caliph representing his father and grandfather
They testified for him openly and secretly

4. The two authorities have pledged allegiance in Mahdi the rightly guided
To Muhammad the son of Zubaydah the daughter of Ja'far

5. He assumed responsibility over the affairs of the people
So it stamped the head of evil with good
