The complaint of the vile, we do not regret a villain.

In positions, this refined one a tent.

3. His determination ascended to the sky and was modeled
In it his noble traits as stars.

Below drinking companions a cupbearer and boon companion.

5. His nature has harmed people, so they were generous,
If it was proper to call anyone else generous.

6. If my speech had not been honored by praising you
My thoughts would not have inclined towards you fettered.

7. But he saw the honor of in-laws so he presumed
To present to you his hidden essence.

8. So he loved you with well-knit minds openly
That headed decisively and with determination towards you.

9. When compatibility became clear she swore
That she would not disappear afterwards and stay.

10. Do not seek from her a dowry, for you have dowered her
With your bounty in my view recently and long ago.

11. I have devoted my speech and my fingers to thanking you
And I have appointed my thoughts as loyalty's chieftain.
