1. I drank the cup of life in sips, sweetened
With the honey of its scent - amber and carnation.

2. When the guiding star rose up the passions faded;
The morning star of Sultan bin Sayf shone clear.

3. None can equal Sultan bin Sayf and his son
In patience and mercy - the scales bear their weight.

4. To their guidance I fled when they showed me the way,
And granted me gifts of their bounty so swift.

5. For you, Sultan, still wear the mantle
Of glory's honor, no moth-holes can rend.
