1. Like an upright spear in beauty, he changed my state of beauty.
I'm accustomed to love the resolute one who sheds men's blood.

2. And if I complained, I wouldn't want along with the complaint, even if it elegized me,
Out of fear for my health and body from fading away in his love.

3. So they are my two pleasures that hasten to my union
And keep me from trysts that would be marred by delays.

4. They have no words, and know nothing but the act,
As if they had taken a pledge of loyalty from my father the sublime.

5. Alas, between them and his loyalty is a far reach.
The bosom friends night and day, and both of them,

6. Whatever is between command and compliance.
His manners were gentle and tender, so they are like clear water,

7. And his qualities the ode slowed under their weight and length.
Of the people of Haydarah, who were accustomed to gift giving,

8. So their palms have come in the morning to hope for his honors.
