1. You deserve praise, O you who are gentle with the lover
And with reunion after separation, you add favor

2. It is true to me that your trait is loyalty
So you treated me with kindness, sympathy and sincerity

3. And you saved me from the evil that I cannot endure
You comforted the young man's heart from what ailed it

4. And you guided him when he was lost
So you remained victorious in all matters

5. Greetings to your highest self, for as long as a pen flows
And as the friend was a helper for his friend
