1. The horses gallop as though they sense
A scent of wine from the jar of Babylon,

2. When the Pole Star shines in their meadows
To a battlefield between spear and sword.

3. A youth who excels all in generosity and aid
With abundant tents or abundant regiments.

4. For drought he has flowing, unstinting generosity
And for war, intense, unhalting valor.

5. He spurned the arrogance of men and his
Generosity toward his wealth sought every beggar.

6. He was a rain cloud, happiness the lightning of his face,
And the direction of his life poured his generosity on the tribes.

7. The feasts congratulated themselves on him for glorious
Lofty pillar of the house, supple branch.
