1. The slanderers have wronged him
They conveyed and said other than what they knew

2. The slanderers claimed that my heart had turned away
They lied about my heart with what they claimed

3. O Lord, take revenge on them for him and distract them
From him by themselves as they distracted him

4. A helpless victim against his loved ones
With no prior sin, they abandoned him

5. He weeps when he remembers his worry and it increases
His agony if they blame him

6. The slanderers gloated over him so when they saw
The effects of what they did to him, they pitied him

7. And the enemies grieved for him out of pity
Oh what a pity from those who pitied him

8. And I excused them knowing that had it not been
For the inevitable decree they would not have done it

9. How great is the affliction that allured them
They cut him off, especially after they had connected to him

10. O you who makes me despair though my heart
Has not ceased to think good, I know who I hope for

11. Indeed the one I hope for, woe to you Ahmad
He is the one who answers the supplication of those who call upon him

12. And if the response is delayed, say to me
Good thoughts, patience does not diminish it

13. So stick to the door of the Generous One, get accustomed
To attaining all that you sought

14. Do not despair of the Generous One and the promise he makes
To the righteous, he has made them deserving of it

15. O leader of caliphs, the supplication of a servant for you
Is with supplication, and his family and sons

16. Time played with him and scattered his group
So he came to your doors complaining

17. He came to you readily, and has not ceased
To complain to you about time and its people

18. And he stayed seeking your generosity that
Those asking have not lost hope in

19. And I arrived at the springs of your generosity
And found crowding there as they described

20. One arriving and another leaving
And if the two burdens are watered, they will not carry it away

21. So I waited while my children waited for me
Whoever passed between their houses asked about me

22. Twenty of my children and grandchildren
Woe to them, what have they encountered?

23. Their situation has worsened and they were lost, destitute
O what pity for the child whose father was absent

24. Their elder ones grieving makes the younger ones cry
So when this one cried, the other cried as well

25. And my intestines almost crumble with sorrow
No matter how many times their conversation is retold

26. There is no benefit in my hands nor solution for me
Except your work that I hope for

27. O Maker of kindness toward its people
You are the One I complain to of what I endure

28. So favor me by allowing their eyes to be joyful
And have mercy on them with what they missed

29. Until I see them altogether in a stand
Praying to their Lord having praised Him

30. Praying for you for wellbeing, and suffice them
With outstretched hands and the tears they shed

31. The school of the fighter and the negligence counted them
So have mercy and hurry and take advantage

32. Of the immense reward, and belie all they conveyed
Your Lord gave you double what humanity asked of Him

33. And double the reward for what they gained
