1. You deserve all glory, O magnanimous one,
For your appreciated efforts, O foremost servant.

2. You are indeed the virtuous chamberlain whom
Every wise man takes as an example in his opinion.

3. And you are, in his kingdom, a supporter of our Master the Imam
In strengthening the most truthful pillar.

4. In you are traits that no book or eloquent anthology
Has fully captured.

5. The brothers have conceded that you are superior
In your precedence in the arena of great feats.

6. And the Minister of Consultation Mustafa
Is the noblest advisor to the King.

7. May God grant him wisdom, experience, and trustworthiness,
A faithful man of great status and firm resolutions.

8. How much we have seen in the papers of his
High ambitions in redressing wrongs.

9. And how much we have heard of his generosity, which
Effaced the munificence of Ka'b and Hatim after them.

10. Every brilliant minister in Tunis
Deserves the praise of scholar and wise man.

11. And my thanks for the long duration, in increasing
The state of our Master the Most Merciful.
