1. Oh people, time holds nothing for me
Since it was excessive in harm and transgression

2. It made holes in my family so I remained alone
To face alone the vicissitudes of time

3. It turned away from my dear loved ones so it inflicted
With their loss, sorrows that tear my guts

4. My eyes were not created for any tears other than mine
Nor my cheeks for the course of any tears other than theirs

5. If only when time destroyed my clan
And shook the pillars of my glory and pride

6. And finished off the elite of my people
Then bent to destroy my loved ones after that

7. It would have helped me against it
So I could have been good when it was bad and during my bliss

8. When I lament the loss of a generous brother
I am thrown from one brother to another

9. So who do I have that I die in front of a tribe
That people console after me for my loss

10. And I did not seek refuge in an ally
Even if the hand of time scarred me

11. Does the compassion of a sympathiser pity me
I almost pitied my opponent

12. So whoever haughtiness empowered and he dismissed
What people say, does he have vengeance so he takes vengeance

13. So here I am, during the days of my time
I have avenged even if I faced a thousand avengers

14. And from the drunkenness that has departed the eyelids
With their tears like a wide wound

15. And it led me to the meadows of worry until
I became distressed while the worries of people are trivial to me

16. What people consider misfortunes in which there is
Great calamity of money and children

17. It anchored its camel at the clan of Ali
The descent of my brother among them and their visitor

18. They hosted their souls and nothing
Is more dear than the souls hosted

19. So after their gathering they became scattered
As if a hand had scattered necklace beads

20. Oh my God, what nights threw at them
Of the excellent ancestors, visitors of the past

21. One corpse betrayed their gathering then another corpse
Taken aside with it to a grave then a grave

22. Repeating for them the evening of their day
The atmosphere of bereavement whose morning reveals

23. It irrigated the youths of Mashhad and even if
They were raised to eternal gardens

24. Alive defeating doctors unless
My tears on the youths revive

25. And the breeze blows dragging behind it
A tail passing through any grove

26. So how many pure souls and Indian swords
It carried to its plains

27. Elders like firmly fixed spears, gray hair
And young men like Indian unsheathed blades

28. And each generous, well-mannered girl is not
Like Indian women or willowy sand dunes

29. Chaste in what dress conceals the abdomen
Of righteousness and asceticism

30. And not like the one who yesterday took away
The purity of birth and the Height of ancestors

31. She fulfilled a promise on the traces of another
Who came together two seekers of a promise

32. The two for a father if you grieve and a mother
The return of the two shrouds together to the hide

33. So oh two of noble origin and religion
And oh my two of honor and glory

34. The misfortune of both is a fire so this
Burns a heart and that consumes a liver

35. And the in-law got a third so it took away
The intimacy of the two as if misfortune spreads

36. Three whom the glorious women of a house never attained
In their shoulders any decline in stature or honor

37. On an example for them of piety, religion
And good roots and abundant proper conduct

38. Those are the best that a shroud covered
And the most generous who dragged the train of their gown

39. They descended from distinction to a place
That distinguishes them from favors and gifts

40. The daughters of fatherhood not like virginity
When men are counted nor like happiness

41. Their qualities if bad qualities are blamed
Are commendable without their absence with a barrier

42. Free women whom the world has not tempted for a husband
With the clinking of jewelry or the words of a slave

43. They were accustomed to their homes secluded like the bird
On nest storehouses, calm

44. So they did not know any house but the home
Other than a grave they inhabited and a cradle

45. But if they had only been for the Arabs the meadows
And they had viewed the girls with ascetic eyes

46. Then their daughters would have been too good for them
And no female would have been buried alive for them

47. But if other than death had extended
Its hands to them and lifetimes were flowing

48. The earth almost would have been leveled from what
The steeds of horses treaded trampling over it

49. Over it the warriors from the heights of glorious Quraish
Possessors of resolve and the strongest determination

50. If you called upon them angry they would come to you
As you growled in the forests of lions

51. With every polished lance, gentle curved
And every Indian sharpened sword

52. As if you disdain to seek help from them
With the two-spear wielder or Amr ibn Wudd

53. The clan of Abdelrawouf and every living
Tribe whose death is the brother of walking honor

54. Your consolation so the most rewarding of people
The brother of green faced it with praise

55. May you be ransomed from he who competes with you and hides
For you under his ribs the burning embers of hatred

56. I inform you and there is no harm in that
For people are both guided and misguided

57. That I am better than he whom you pastured
For you affection and was most loyal to the pact

58. You have tried brothers other than me
And you have frequent dealings so did they fill my place?

59. So do not cling to the ropes of other than me
Even if they cling to the bonds of affection

60. Without you lacking favor upon you
Is the praise of a distinguished one in solo poetry

61. He excels in extracting the water of meanings
So he produces it while the digging of people exhausts

62. The people share with me in poetry the claim
That I am the distinguished one in it, alone
