1. If one who prays is disappointed, or his prayers fade,
I am one who prays, and God is the answerer,

2. You revived a man's soul through your kindness,
That is a prayer that can hardly go unanswered,

3. May God grant you generosity and glory forever,
For they are most beloved to you,

4. And keep you for the eulogists who dedicate their praises
To you, atop their howdahs, and you reward them,

5. That grievance was unveiled from you and the beauties
Of a face whose freshness was peeled away were made plain,

6. As clouds that had gathered over the moon of a dark night
Parted, and the desired outcome was fruitful,

7. It brought relief without causing devastation, and though it thundered,
No crops were struck dead, but those that were dry came alive,

8. A complaint that drew memories of you from you
And brought forth clouds of favor that have lightning,

9. Followed by a new innocence as if it were
Fresh, reddish youth whose gray hairs were shorn,

10. And by minting, a coin and ingot became refined,
And by polishing, the spearpoints of warriors gleamed,

11. So in every house there is joy after sorrow,
And in every club there is a poet and an orator,

12. Who speak of the merit you deserve,
And all of them speak truly,

13. Had a living person complained of a grievance, you would have concealed it,
But for each person there is a share in complaining,

14. And in patience for heart-searching complaints there is scope,
And in God and your immense custom there is a healer,

15. You are near to help every miserable person
Who calls on you - so God's help through you is near,

16. God refused to empty the position occupied
By a noble one who in both worlds has no equal,

17. May the intimacy of glory protect you from all loneliness
For you are a stranger in these people,

18. And time has turned from all evil to you
And comes to you remorseful and penitent,

19. The enemies are still hostile in every situation,
And money has a day against you that is painful,
