1. My patience almost ran out when you asked for my patience
There is no weakness or magic in your eyes

2. Whenever I said my longing spilled my tears
Abundant downpours followed after downpours

3. Is it a crime that I gained your affection and connection?
Or is it for a sin that I committed you loosened our bond?

4. No, by your love I have not reciprocated affection
With rejection or fulfilled loyalty with my excuse

5. It provides relief for my heart filled with sorrow
Or comfort for the burning in my chest

6. I wish I knew if I did good or if I caused harm
And seldom does kindness occur, I wish I knew

7. Do not blame me for some of your blame tempts me
And turn away from me for you have adopted my excuse

8. Are the critics hopeless of the innocence of my intoxication?
The intoxication of passion is the most potent intoxication

9. With Ahmed Son of Ayyub’s dew the darkness of my night is illuminated
And my difficult night is brightened and my easy face smiles

10. A King whose gifts never cease reaching us
Blessings that come to us morning and night

11. I raise the glory of the two worlds which is too little
And provide the people with ample destiny

12. Bringing together and separating feared and hoped for
For each state, benefits and harm

13. How many brothers facing destitution saw deprivation as destined
And declined the abundance of his generosity while it was fruitful

14. It made people doubtful of his gifts so they said
“Is this a rain shower or the flooding of a sea?”

15. I do not care so long as I hold onto a rope from Him
Whatever vicissitudes of fate renew against me

16. Is it true that with us it broke free and became abundant
While it remains hidden in the person of a fearful concealor

17. And justice became released, unconditionally
After it had been bound in shackles of captivity

18. With you, time became well-mannered with me, while
Before I used to shy away from it and decline

19. So whenever doubts about it crept into me
I have no recourse but to flee back to you

20. You have a glory more faithful than any other glory
And pride loftier than any other pride

21. I, with love, seek to increase my praise for you
While I fall short in broadcasting my gratitude

22. The finely woven fabric of glorious boasting
Some of what my poetry has dressed you in

23. Gems of praise it has gained unlike
Anything since the other generous ones
