1. Congratulations, O Commander of the Faithful, for your deliverance is the deliverance of the true religion.
Congratulations to you and the Book and the nation whose survival is their life and your survival.

2. You took a covenant with fate so no harm can reach you.
He who is clothed in the Prophet's mantle, no arrows can hurt him.

3. The Bayt almost walks in gratitude to its Lord towards you and Sa'y hastens calling out Labbayka.
The mosques humbly request your forgiveness spreading out prayer mats.

4. The fertile land seeks forgiveness for what the sinful killers have watered.
The wounded flex their injuries toward you and the slain send their prayers to you.

5. You laughed at the horrors then cried for them with tears that brought mercy.
On the Day of Resurrection, fragments and remains will be rewarded for their sacrifice and purity.

6. You did not revive them but they all belong to their Lord. So those who died in Your path did not die.
A gang of evil, enemies of prayer, shot them with arrows of betrayal while they prayed.

7. Jesus disavows them and their companions. Are Jesus' merciful followers so harsh?
They oppose religion but do not oppose a state. Their claim and complaint are false.

8. There is no good in this world or in its rights if those who seek rights are tyrants.
With what heart can one face horrors steadily? The hearts of all people lack steadfastness,

9. When the earth shakes around you, your tranquility returns it to stillness until anxieties subside.
If a fire breaks out and becomes Hell, consuming the bodies of all and growing,

10. With a raging inferno and heated city, and wails of burning agony,
You walked in the Prophet's coolness and it surrounded you, peace and coolness.

11. While the world wore armor, yours was a humble, praying heart.
You laughed while forms of death frowned, and were dignified while tyrants raged.

12. If guards failed you, angels sent by God protected you.
With your enlightened Ahmadi face, hopeful eyes shine.

13. You give life though fate takes it, and fate apologizes to you for taking it.
Your deliverance is a blessing from God renewed for which thanks and charity are due.

14. So make the Commander of the Faithful's praise virtues that give life to the earth even as it dies.
If your existence never eluded us, the hopes of souls would not be lost.

15. We tested you wakeful amidst swords and spears when kings neglected the hunt during their slumber.
You stayed awake while sweet sleep, a blessing, ignored the people whose shepherds were caprice.

16. Without you the kingdom of Muslims would be lost and without you the unity of Muslims would be shattered.
Their banners are gone except for the one whose victory, mark, and conquests are resplendent.

17. It shades the days, honored and splendid, with raids sheltered in its shade.
Hanifiyyah, strengthened and made strong by thirty conquering kings who protected and eternalized it over the ages.

18. Clouds in the sky of time, lamps in the night of doubt, guides.
Sailing peacefully around you, to which the hopes and fears of creation incline.

19. The wild beasts of the air die wretched before it while the souls and passions of people come alive.
You exemplified justice in the affairs of people so the times rested satisfied with you and they rested.

20. You are a cloud and time is a spoiled child. You are a spear and time is a gullet.
You are the pillar of peace if its pillar tilts and trustees cling to it.

21. Could anyone but you improve this situation after years made it easy for you?
Whoever experiences the world thirty years gains wisdom and patience against it.

22. You ruled the Commander of the Faithful, son of a happy man, by a merit minds acknowledge.
I remain singing your praises and blowing gently continues from you to me.

23. I spurned comfort in your pleasure, aspiring to God's rewards.
One like me, praising the best of times, cannot be swayed even by gifts from the likes of you.

24. I have gems of character in praise and passion, and Al-Mutanabbi has one gem.
A nation was saved when you were saved and the dynasty endured long life.

25. Royal splendor was protected and its glory stretched on, goodness and good acts lasting through it.
In the east and west of the land, orphans were secured in their livelihoods and naked ones clothed.

26. My greetings from this place fall short. Upon you are God's greetings and blessings.
