1. The covenant with your father is not forgotten,
Rather, my determination to avenge you and your father remains resolute.

2. I shed tears upon tears, though the grieving one
Is not inclined to draw out sorrow with weeping.

3. If my tears do not shed my blood,
Then behind the shooting stars of tears is the burning ember of blood.

4. Ahmad did not hoard his wealth from a beggar,
So he could hoard the water in his eyelids.

5. Often the generosity of the son of Musa with the white hand
Made clear the darkness of requests.

6. And how often he refused in generosity a purpose which had occurred
To him, and folded away the talk of the lost.
