1. Through your generosity, the distant one comes near
And the deeds of fate are set right, though fate is corrupt

2. When your virtues were mentioned, the jealous one recoiled
Your friend, unless angry and jealous, does not exist

3. I see you on the path of glory and exaltation
And glory is mostly that you are glorious

4. I came to you, my feet unaccustomed to stirrups
My will unfocused, my journey without destination

5. The calamities of fate tossed me about by their turns
And I hope in you most in times of calamity

6. If I had no guide for my endeavors
Your noble deeds would still lead me

7. For time estranged me long, but a day
Of your single gift will console it

8. If I hoped for riches in your generosity
I would attain what I hoped from you, and more
