1. O crown of the kings of the earth, and gem
That adorns the highest rank, its necklaces

2. O pillar of the house that was founded
On the auspicious star's lofty summit

3. Your servant has a need, O cloud of hope
I postpone it, awaiting the return of its rains

4. Far be it from you to sever ties with one
Whose hopes cling to the hem of your call

5. How can I despair, when your sea of bounty
Has sources ever-flowing, streams ever-pouring

6. Indeed, I know whoever seeks your door
Seeks it with the best of intentions
