1. O Rustam son of Khudahi
O gazelle of the council

2. By the right of creatures
And revelry and festival

3. And sanctity of the kings
When he weeps in the abodes

4. And bouquet of willows
And every oath and covenant

5. And blame of the immoral
And valor of the spears

6. And turn of times
And rule of the imprudent

7. The oath of the vile
Misguided, wicked

8. You have doubted my heart
With arrows of estrangement

9. So why, O Khudahi
Have you plunged into defiance?

10. If this love of yours
Was from olden times

11. Then here, take vengeance on me
Overcome me, O disgraced one

12. Thus my wounds avenged
Came from the Judge

13. But if this was the intent
Then shrouded I walk to my grave
