1. Who do I see being just with me against a friend
Who does not cease to wear the garment of distress?

2. Whenever the blamers circle around him
He is quick to accept in his haste

3. While the slanderers - may woe be upon them - do not refrain
From shortening the rope of access to union

4. How can the passion of one who has before him
A spectacle and listener to rejection not change?

5. If he were to see his affection in the conscience
He would not cease to meet me with kindness

6. No! Nor the honor of blamers
I do not believe before the proof is clear

7. I do not believe one who accuses a friend
My family and his are of the same tribe

8. Souls harmonized in brotherhood
All professing love of the Messenger

9. Redeemer of mankind and guide of men
And his successor, the immaculate one

10. The merit of one is for his companion, and the enemy
Does not cease to be downcast with rancor

11. Between us is an association that cannot be undermined
By the saying of a foe or tales

12. And the blending of our souls in purity
Is like the blending of rain in its generality

13. Except that the envious may intrude
With impropriety between them

14. But he does not attain what he hopes for
No! Nor lead them astray from the path

15. O my brother and pillar in tribulations
By whom I attain all I wish

16. Who shares with me the old and the new
Of my precious possessions and bounties

17. Stay in your affection for me as long as you live
Do not reject a gift you have bestowed

18. There is no estrangement between us in excellence
Each one is a conduit for his brother
