1. Gabriel, you are guidance from the heavens, and you are proof of providence.
Spread your two wings, which are purity and guidance.

2. Add to the crescent in glory, and to the cross in care.
For they are banners for your Lord, while war is the banner of Satan.

3. The Merciful did not create anything greater than them in righteousness and wonder.
The two reds signify costly blood and its sanctity.

4. The two striders for rescuing, the two runners to protection.
Shining over the tumult, enlightenment was clear from misguidance.

5. They stand beside bloodshed like innocence beside crime.
Had they stayed over Karbala, the grandson would not have been denied water.

6. Or if they had reached the day of Messiah, they would have aided him in revenge.
And for us was martyrdom, not escape, which stories describe.

7. O you who bestowed protection on the wounded.
You endured well in pulling out arrows, enduring your epoch’s archery.

8. And you passed the captives, so you were the breeze of their courtyard lodging.
And the daughters of your gender, if they build goodness, excel in building.

9. Yesterday, for Luthar, her neighbor’s care was not enough.
She extended a hand to the soldiers and was generous in wrapping them.

10. And the veiled women, they suffice wherever a deputy is lacking.
Aiding a riverbank or villages like the women of Tay in the beginning.

11. If they are not the Merciful's angels, yet they are their tale.
They answered your noble call and raced to reach righteousness.

12. The beneficent are the essence, and the rest of the people are waste.
O you who roam in ignorance and blindness.

13. Who ignite war out of love for expanding authority.
You who claim custodianship and divine rule over all people.

14. You who birth death, demolishing endlessly.
Every wound will be mended, with consolation or forgetting.

15. Except the wounds of truth, in the era of decadence and disregard.
They will remain bleeding, until the day of lawsuit and grievance.
