1. Muthaffar al-Din, if the men surpass,
The steeds have surpassed on the day of hasty departure.

2. He who taught running in his glories,
From too much running and riding him.

3. Listening to the whisper of a secret of his horseman,
As if with the conscience of running he beats him.

4. He approaches him from afar fast on earth,
As if his tether in pulling him is his forelock.

5. He sees an inscription like Solomon's on his gray,
When it goes forth and the wind is its vessel.

6. When it was accustomed in war to blood shedding,
It went forth in peace to henna dyeing him.
