1. We sought vengeance, so we killed
All dissidents and obstinate among you

2. We killed you in Yahya's name, and never
Does God's rule return in vain

3. You provoked, O slaves' sons, lions
Who never shirked from avenging

4. So they ignited its heat and the heat of swords
That blaze upon you like firewood

5. You continued to wrong it crookedly until
You met death, the worst of all meetings

6. To you came Majid, leading
Valiant youths like lions toward you

7. Majid strove for glory until
He attained the utmost summit of glory

8. And his growth for generosity, fathers of sincerity reared
And ancestors, none like his ancestors

9. A refined Hibrizi from Nuzr
And a pillar, none like him a pillar

10. Seeking vengeance, the vengeance of honorable folk
Who kept their word after their word

11. So he ravaged the Red, leaving none
Save Eyan bound in his chains

12. We have killed thousands of you, but how can
Killing the noble equal killing slaves?

13. They killed him when he granted them refuge
Killing him was no wise opinion

14. Vile slaves of vileness killed him
And the acts of slaves are not praiseworthy

15. In their act they attained no wisdom
Neither had their ancestors been fortunate

16. You betrayed him, O villainous sons, after
An oath that was affirmed with covenants

17.
And if killing him was betrayal, it was not

18. Defeat, no, nor clamor
He was a lion protecting wars, a fortress

19. And asylum and refuge of the chained
In him were piety, patience, munificence - generosity

20. None like his from any generous one
High rose the glory of glories, your glory O Yahya

21. Above all the glorious of old and late
So may God grant you Heaven's Eden
