1. She came with congratulations, so let us congratulate her guide,
Her compositions are magnificent, her meanings subtle,

2. She indicates beauty and favor, as is her right,
Never have her songs contained the likes of her.

3. From her breaths spread in the body a musical tremor,
The creeping of love for this good thing, its stimulant,

4. Let her congratulate us on a feast of which she is witness,
The feast of the souls when they attain their wishes.

5. O Yusuf, give me from your nearness a look
Cast back, as you are her guide.

6. So your breast may relax, filled as it is with wisdom
And pleasantness of soul, making it yearn.

7. For you are among intimates who have cares for you
That will remain even if absent ones far and near die.

8. And give us from the alms of knowledge what is due,
You who built the house of knowledge and founded it.

9. May the Lord of Loftiness make you live to spread His wisdom,
Despite the hostility of those who oppose and hate you.
