1. Thus may the king suffer, he who gives away kingdoms
And he whose necks were bent in submission to him as king

2. I stood up and tied the knots of rebellion
So I dissolved his resolve and cut through his rope

3. And he who resolves confusion at its emergence
Remedies complaint before it can complain

4. If supporters obey, they are struck with regret
For obedience they had not complained of before spilling blood

5. And he led them to repentance before vengeance
But there is no good in the garment of the young man after it is lacerated

6. And he said buy the horses that will bring you glory
For glory keeps the king occupied away from you

7. The supporters thought Yahya was like others
Whose temples would be deterred if his nation fractured

8. And he said buy them, so the news of their opposition
Flew to the hearing of Yahya while he was listening to what was related

9. Nothing led them but the faces of his horses
Racing against a lion when they were described as Turks

10. Your war horses, undoubtedly, race towards their war
And your white plain travails when they race upon it

11. So their horses sensed what was upon them
They wanted glory through them but it brought them ruin

12. They killed their masters above them while they were below
On a day they saw the morning as a dark night

13. So the day they bought them, their wealth was corrupted by it
And the day they mounted them, their souls were poured out

14. So he said, leave them, he who advised their purchase
For the certainty of the sword has certainly done away with doubt

15. So they returned the horses to you when they despaired
That they would not lead them except to ruin

16. You have signs in your possession now that the matter
Has strengthened, relaxed, steadied and eased

17. You had no need to take the horses as booty
Nor spend money, but rather you pardoned them fully

18. While how many campaigns were carried out without you
And expenditures made for you to acquire horses, but not for you

19. There is no fortune except beneath your fortune, for it
Debased your enemies and subdued them fully

20. The Bedouins had extended their necks
To see what would happen to them because of you

21. You made them into warning examples of destruction
For the rest of those who turned away, so you subjugated their necks

22. The clan of Ram had intentions, but they woke up
To find your horses had brought them to a narrow abode

23. Evil revolved around them, so evil is yours
And it surged like a sea wave with the ship rider

24. Yahya separated them, for you had broken
Their death blows, unfastening the jaws of their mouths

25. They left traces of sheep in the two delights they traced
Based on an act you do not approve for the Turks

26. And he passed by, disabled, though not crippled
But he complained of them so he complained

27. And he sent against them a group of his horses
Slowly spilling their blood spill by spill

28. And he turned away from them when they returned to his guidance
And he led those who deviated from his path

29. The Zaydi sons of Ladiha obeyed and increased
By their adherence, climbing up the steps

30. And the house of Hussein, in it are the noble sons of Ubayda
Noble slaves whom they consider kings

31. And the sons of Za'al, whose protection remains
And if you had not been, I would have forgotten, crying over those who cry

32. And the sons of Sum, who are not deaf when called
To good, no man recognizes any fault in them

33. You made them preachers of sermons
To Abs, and Abs is not hidden from you

34. There will inevitably come a day of encounter
When Abs will find no glory from you

35. And you erase the wickedness from the nature of the wicked
And enter them into reflection and make them cry

36. And among Huradh were the two deceivers from Bani Saba
Yet they are your servants, the truth of which is evident

37. Satan misguided them in ignorance, and whoever inclines
His ear to Satan, he dupes him completely

38. If you take vengeance, it is justified, and if you pardon them
Then your pardon is of your excellent traits that do not cease

39. And one like you, protected by the people if he is equitable
So he smiles by his grace and makes them cry by his justice

40. You fulfilled desires and returned victorious
When your sleeve was pulled, hearing your enemies complain

41. And you fixed the extremities of the lands and left
No remaining tyrants raising their heads if they were cracked

42. Welcome, welcome! The good has come, glorious
Seeing each day better than the one before

43. There is no place that does not extend expectantly
Nor border that does not widely smile from joy

44. When he appeared they fell prostrate to their Lord
Seeing prostration of thanks as worship then

45. For they recognized your closeness to them
By your distance from them, and complained of what does not complain

46. In every house there is joy and delight
But the joy of my house cannot be limited or imagined

47. My house has attained from you, O King of the World
Favors I could have never attained before you

48. For you O Yahya have restored its youth
After the days had demolished its pillars

49. As for my youth, it was not restored, but you gave me
The vigor of my soul, so it is as if new, or more so

50. I did not oppose the strict command, nor deviate
To leave, though much excuses warrant leaving

51. If another was appointed over me in my inability
I would not blame him in worship

52. So tell his enemies altogether to block his path
And make me hear the most false talk from you about him

53. If they all insulted a person, they could not fulfill
The certainty of what will come, nor approach doubt

54. You have not ceased being the protected victor
Bearing the burdens of a just king who gives kingdoms

55. My gratitude, whose rights cannot be fulfilled
Is high, inaccessible, we cannot attain its loftiness
