1. Sa'eed bin Sultan built glory and sublime
With a sharp sword, and turned away hypocrisy

2. And exposes the stubborn in speech, you will never see
Anyone like him in eloquence if he composes it

3. If the age of glory lengthens, it is his arm's length
And if the head of pride stands, it is his brain

4. Whoever desires to attain a fortress in his days
He waters him the canal of death whether he likes it or not

5. For the glory of Ibn Sultan, for him is the victory and sublime
And whoever God helps him against whoever deviated him

6. A young man who wishes to fold his hands and cease
And the sun of his glories and the sweetness of his drink

7. When he defeated his hopes, he rallied his horses
And if he reconquered the sea, its expanse does not end

8. He gently rebukes in speech, and he
Is a sword that hits whoever blocked his temple

9. Praise be to God for the time that brought me joy
At night solitude visits me while the night is secluded

10. Sometimes clinking my ear with the pearl of her talk
And sometimes making me drink injustice so I quaff

11. I lean, drunk from the vines of the cluster
And I pick from the gardens of the cheek

12. She spent the night in the dress of piety, greeting me
As the letter lām greets the letter alif

13. And negligence has oversights that we were seized by
Passion envelops us at times so we befriend

14. Until dawn came and her separation whitened
And the star in the west above the mountain, recoiling

15. She got up to bid me farewell while the fire raged
In our livers and the tears of the eyes drew

16. And for resolve there are stabs in our conscience
And separation became clear to us from its neighing

17. So she bid farewell and the pearls of dew she scattered
Like the generosity of our master the Sultan that follows

18. This is what Sa'eed bin Sultan who relied on him
The lands and the fire of honor and nobility

19. If he protected himself with the dust of war
The enemies rejoiced then were defeated and withdrew

20. He forgives them when they are humiliated and gives them security
But they were shocked, turned around, and did not stand

21. Annihilation befell them when they transgressed and committed aggression
And opposed what the living practice and the ancestors

22. If you smell him masked in the dust of war
His sword flashes to the enemy that it seizes

23. The sword and the lances testify what his right hand did
As do the pens and the scriptures

24. His generosity has flowed with the clouds descending
And people in his house seclude themselves for generosity

25. Eulogies end but the description of him remains, even if
All creation say and describe

26. And I ask Allah to keep him elevated
For him towers and lodges are built in the sublime
