1. The minister's bosom friend, for as long as the sun rises
And gives life to the winding paths of al-Hamid's abode,

2. The ample folds of his cloak are like the pouring rain clouds
And his swords have a shyness to their attributes.

3. Calm and dignified whether in peace or in the fray,
In resolve and forbearance, he is the wind and the mountain.

4. A piercing blade that kills the souls of the abode from generosity
Without tallying and brings hope alive in his presence.

5. Loyalty and love from him do not change
With the passage of time, no treachery or boredom.

6. The counselor of propriety, it is not right that his speech be professing love,
Rather it brims with the remembrance of the Most High.

7. An army whose ranks the vicissitudes of fate have turned
And the white blades recoil from engaging with it and the weapons.

8. When the clouds give up spearing the enemy,
They fear his tombs, the lionesses, and the twisting snakes.

9. Muhammad is the pillar of the faith, as
The nobles have testified to his virtue and states.

10. Generosity flows spontaneously from his fingers
When the clouds are a roaring, flooding rain.

11. And travel sets out from the place of his flowing spring,
Having quenched the people with the sublime and pure water.

12. They know no wealth but his blessings
Until when they turn away from his generosity, they depart.

13. Righteous, fortified by piety and protected
By his sincerity, and upon the Merciful he relies.

14. The arrows of misfortunes glance off his perfections,
While humiliation falls short of reaching him.

15. He lived for glory and supremacy, striving
To gain their utmost extent for as long as camels kneel.
