1. Do not fear the enmity of those whose secrets you have exposed
He whose heart has died, his branches do not live

2. Leave him for the vicissitudes of time as prey
Do you expect him to honor one whose love is his disgrace?

3. And if you wanted to destroy an arrogant kingdom
Your standard's inscription would be ignorance if you sent it as a van

4. So those who loved life obeyed you
And the traitor immersed in tyranny joined you

5. Let the Romans seek safety, for the sharpness
Of a cutting sword and its wielder has appeared to them

6. Sleep has abandoned their eyelids since they were awakened
By one whose eyelids do not sleep on gravel

7. With resolve that shakes the universe and terrifies it
And an army that hunts the enemy, its horsemen

8. His swords guaranteed the throats of his opponents
So he settled the life of his followers and trained them

9. And kings aspired to the nobility he attained
Since he conquered the lands that were divided between them long ago

10. They boasted of it and he put it above himself
Since his youths achieved it

11. And so these armies are led and ruled
By Bonjuktin their prince and tyrant

12. And God brought them against their enemies
So that kindness flows from their kindness

13. His promises sing the praises of their swords
And the abundance of their seas overflows with treason

14. The rain is not withheld, though often
The clouds are absent, yet it comes from their peaks

15. He who excels possesses intelligence, not
He whose time and era preceded

16. Is there one who can compete when his arrow is lofty
If his time is after the prophets?

17. So let the rulers of the lands know that he
Is a celestial orbit that will seize them in its rotation

18. For when his Turks protected them, it was his Turks
And when his Sudan defended them, it was his Sudan

19. O you who suffice Islam without a partner
Liberating it from tribulations that turn children gray

20. Your qualities suffice, without witnesses testifying
Your glory, sir, is obvious proof

21. You have collected virtues that cannot be denied
And the dawn cannot conceal its light

22. Good tidings herald your flash of wealth
Like lightning indicating its radiance to the world

23. A call that excellence falls short of your praise
And the hopes of mankind are shaded by your branches

24. But property does not remain with an owner
Except for the children of Muna as its treasurers

25. As for your peer among people, he does not
Exist, nor can his being be possible

26. None are rightly guided toward glory but you
All others say "Where is my place?"

27. You have done what the world failed to do
And known what their knowing frustrated them from

28. You supplemented the Hajj with a raid that, without you
Its people would have been incapable of accomplishing

29. And you spent your red gold to enable them
In days when accessing it pained them

30. So your victory from God is hastened
And His approval is deferred for you

31. It is a blessing whose praise remains upon you
Among people for as long as shepherds roam

32. Thus the House thanks it when it circles around
During the Hajj season, and its corners are kissed

33. So God answered there the prayer of a companion
Reciting the Quran beside it, his recitation being the Quran

34. And you remained for the Master whom you were ennobled by
His days and eras became long

35. Until you see your army multiplied manyfold
And its warriors more numerous than before

36. Why should I go on excessively praising you
When poetry is an inclination of my thoughts

37. How can I deny what the hand that
Gave generously with its prisoner's bounty and help has done for me?

38. So listen to your praiser, whose poetry contains
None but you, when his book is folded

39. Among the sons of Eve I see no other
Whose gift is hoped for and estrangement feared

40. Thus my hopes turn away from other than you
And follow you, their firm intent cleaving to you

41. The feast praised you for the piety with which
Its fasting praised you before

42. So celebrate it and submit, may your might remain triumphant
Forever, for the authority of truth is its authority
