1. Your glory's sun in horizons is lights
And for the grateful from your generosity is enrichment

2. And for generosity if your virtues are recited
In every assembly, rapt attention and listening

3. You were created and innate in you is generosity that is acknowledged
To you the desert's non-Arabs and Arabs

4. Generosity is the generosity of the son of Isa the most high in praise
And most prevailing generosity among people is favoritism

5. Generosity embodied until it seemed a human being
And that is you and the most high of your most high

6. You disagree with people in religions but did not agree
Except on you, for them in generosity there are opinions

7. And glory is from the first crown exchanged
By the Al Khalifa forefathers and sons

8. They are the kings, on them pours their obtainment
Each on it for them in virtue is a mark

9. And it was named pride in you every pride
That kings prided themselves on and rising and allegiance

10. So glory is your crown of glories its jewels
And the age is a bosom friend while you in it are lights

11. With justice you fortified and equalized your subjects
And justice with those crowned is most precious

12. Whoever rules with injustice and terror a kingdom
So people flee from him as long as enemies

13. The kingdom will not be safe from chaos and strife
As long injustice in its harbor is anchored

14. And the kingdom is corrupted by fraud nested in it
And the kingdom kept safe by for the kingdom the competent

15. If not for Abu Muslim the Banu Marwan kingdom would have remained
And fraud for benefaction is women

16. None denies the favor except every upstart
The noble refuses even if direness touches him

17. And generosity is what comes freely so it is a bonus
And generosity two kinds: asked and voluntary giving

18. O you who fears for his world its calamities
Seek refuge first, for it is the protecting abode

19. Say O son of Isa, O Abu Salman O Hamad
In you is the refuge so our shelter

20. No king but God you are its lord
And no covering from days that destroy

21. I was told that you, O generous one, mention me
In that an honor and extolling for me

22. You were asking about me graciously
And in asking is bringing the mentioned back to life

23. Youth vanished but its achievements did not
And gray hair dignifies the man so it is glittering

24. If my head turned gray but my heart in its prime
As if it is mute smooth rock

25. My mind sound and intellect composed
And the consciousness awake and no exhaustion in speech

26. And the land green and rivers flowing
And the soul pleased and palm full

27. And you are the treasure, God's bounty I reckon you
For all touched in the time by tribulations

28. As if yearning for the mention of you stirs me
So the memory my inebriation and I have no sobering from it

29. And I get spirited whenever I count your virtues
And never will counting them end

30. As if I was from intimacy and joy
Abu Nuwas with no composure of mind

31. I love the generous and in tales of them is my bliss
And the soul's strings thrilled and joyful

32. O you blaming me for my passion for them
Spare me blame for blame is tempting

33. Love of the lofty distracts me from pleasures
And for the wilderness phases and passions

34. O you the intended king, all ways to you
In it for the orbit are anchored

35. You are Al-Rashid and peace abode in it is bliss
And eye of evil blind

36. In truth I say without greed or fear
And the truth like dawn, shining then lights

37. Witnessing the truth openly I present
To records and concealment is disregard

38. None bestowed like you smilingly
Nor exalted like your exaltation have been exalted
