1. For he who heralds Your full pardon, what else
Could I possibly desire after this boon?

2. The least bit of Your pleasure acquired
Suffices one hopeful of bliss however dear.

3. Thus, once I gain it I'll be assured,
Fearing not the tyranny of time however fierce.

4. And You are more apt to glance again
Upon one imploring Your affection however oft.

5. Clemency is Your known nature
O Best of those who grace the worthy when oppressed.

6. You are the suns of guidance, and their rising
Curbed tyranny and discord once and for all.

7. You singled out Hussein's son as the one
Pleasing to the Lord of Law and Judgment.

8. The rule is yours, its origin, and by it
You've precedence and rank most high.

9. Thus He ordained its course through your integrity,
Made smooth by you however rough the road.

10. O You who built forgiveness a house whose pillars
Ever rise above the summits of flame!

11. This is the station of one tortured by regret
Seeking refuge from a blunder that misled.

12. Grievous it was, but then Your pardon for it
Matched the Prophet's pardon of Ka'b's trespass.

13. So allow it my wish whose title is
Your smiling after that, Your wrath now passed.

14. And extend to me a hand I'll be blessed to kiss,
Its munificence lifting this burden I bear.

15. May Your life endure, and might inviolate,
As long as one seeking nears however remote!
