1. The matter has ended well
With the blessing of Ibrahim, head of the family

2. A young man of chastity, argument and attainment
And a mine of morals and virtues

3. He called the villages to his cause and they responded
And embraced the call until it grew

4. And I do not say he died during it
But rather at its utmost growth

5. It overtook him in his club of his people as prey
And game in his valley while he was the greatest game

6. He was thrown in prison and it became his grave
God caused him to die and brought his family to life

7. While the mourners were whispering about him
His brother was proclaimed by the callers

8. He was pledged allegiance in Kufa to the Shedder (of Blood)
During the heyday of the call and the struggle

9. He announced the death of his brother and his mother
And established the Hashimi state

10. On a Friday witnessed by Arafat and Mina
Kufa became the place where the moon rises

11. Good fortune emerged over the armies through him
The eminent figures pledged allegiance to him there

12. And through him the Islamic state attained Ali
Abu Al-‘Abbas assumed the imamate

13. The son of Jula, of the blackened turban
A young man beside whom the youths pale

14. Summoning to a kingdom, supporting a state
Like the full moon in its sky, but more beautiful

15. If there were a full moon above the earth to complete it
Through him rule returned to the Four

16. And authority gathered to him in four
The son of sustenance did not promise except truthfully

17. And did not find except submissiveness and generosity
Softer than vinegar but severest in cutting

18. Not knowing mercy when he cuts
There was a day between the two states

19. A people were mighty through him and a people humbled
The factions met with the factions

20. And the two hosts battled around the strait
A river the great matter revolved around

21. The passing of a state and the arising of its state
Marwan was the most complete cavalry

22. And Abdullah’s army the most loyal in the encounter
So God granted ample victory

23. And triumph to the son of the pure masters
The sun of the day did not set

24. Until the sun of the Abbasids rose
They hoped like Joshua for the manifestation

25. And victory before the disappearance of the illusion
So the intention was momentous

26. And the sun almost waited for them
The state of the Servant of the Sun repelled

27. And his days passed like the day before yesterday
Through Abd Shams, Abd al-Muttalib was victorious

28. No match for the victorious except the defeated
So since the atmosphere emptied for Hashim’s sword

29. The storm winds of the aggressive tyrant blew
Violating sanctity by entering the house

30. Destroying the living and violating the dead
And violating graves though they are sacrosanct

31. Leave the crime of the dead to the killer
The Umayyads' carpet was rolled up

32. Replaced with sheets for them
And every crime has punishment befalling it

33. Even if on descendants and later generations
Then the youthful conqueror passed away

34. From a state of advancing reasons
The towns were thus devoid of life through him

35. And he who gave them life died in Anbar
