1. The abodes are desolate,
In them there is no confusion,

2. The songs have worn out in them,
As lines of poetry wear out.

3. Separation has divided among them,
Spirits and early mornings,

4. And nights conversing,
While the night companion sleeps.

5. So they folded the tent of life,
As silk is folded.

6. They dragged them and ran away,
From the intent of separation furious.

7. And in your eyes the burdens of life,
And separation is quick.

8. Like palm branches they displayed
Their beauty as the winds blew.

9. Left behind in the abode are maidens,
Who in the loops became maidens.

10. Changing what the revolving one changed in it,
And the resident.

11. Scattered are disgusted ones,
Not disciplined by manners.

12. Sometimes I visit the family,
Arriving unexpectedly and stealthily moving.

13. And I visit the lonely ruins,
Hidden by the curtains.

14. For the eyes of the abode are pictures,
And the neighbor is good.

15. Excuse me, for foolishness
From an elder to an elder.

16. Your eye grew accustomed to my eye,
But that tyrant refused.

17. He left me and your cheeks,
Nothing to fear the jealous one.

18. So sleep while your eye is adorned,
And sleep is abundant.

19. The tree branch and the doe are restless upon it,
And the cuckoo bird.

20. Like the bitter aloe is twisted,
And the night is ungenerous.

21. A cat I struggled with,
And the night is disbelieving.

22. It did not leave in its regions,
From the dawn remnants.

23. With gazelles it divided,
From them the she-oryx fled.

24. For Humaid and Humaid is
The shining moon of the earth.

25. If Humaid protected the world,
There would be in it no poor.

26. A king whose both hands
Are overflowing with gifts.

27. And both his days in the land
Are bearers of good news and warners.

28. Arrogant in command, the proud,
Do not attain his lofty aims.

29. Indeed whoever strives in the horizon,
Seeking to peer, will be wretched.

30. And suffice him that he is vile,
While the seas cannot reach his height.

31. Easy going, spending money,
And with the sword a butcher.

32. And a rider who stirred anxiety,
Feared by the brave.

33. Humaid guaranteed the land,
So he is for the land a guard.

34. With a hand that draws from behind,
So it brings victory and destroys.

35. Money is restless in it,
And through it sorrows are consoled.

36. Silent, so dignity was kindled,
And it was purified by honor.

37. So for him is never-ending praise,
And for him is the final praise.

38. People were troubled and proceeded,
In the Nile what is in it is the remains.

39. And swift with gifts,
And in frightening firm.

40. How dear is the one God supports,
Other than Him one seeks refuge!

41. O Abu Ghanim the protected,
Against whom sorrows narrow.

42. O guardian of security when
Fears tighten the chests.

43. Through you the pillar of earth is firm,
And the mill of kingship turns.

44. You are a supporter of the kingdom,
And for you God is a supporter.

45. The thoughts of many turn,
Deceived by you arrogance and pomp.

46. He is tempted by ease of blessing,
And the glittering illusion of power.

47. He grew accustomed to betrayal upon betrayal,
Inciting and changing.

48. You led him with the horses, a leading,
The day of the leading of horses in file.

49. And a Thursday when the land,
Is grasped for him, a brief shadow.

50. Your steps reach the white,
And the leader of the line the tree.

51. And he whispers in it to death,
My days and nights.

52. Like one who turned to him,
The patient twisting fate.

53. You have left the birds that came
Suddenly while he is barren.

54. The questioning empty mind,
Seeks from him and the opinion.

55. You are for the dawn radiance,
The dawn has no rejecter.

56. And to your glory grows,
Every glory and is humbled.

57. And the palm of your hand is an ocean,
From which oceans split.

58. Everyone with long glory,
Is short next to your lofty aims.

59. And little from your hands,
Upon the people is great.

60. So live beyond what is counted,
Of lifetimes, years, and months.
