1. Let the subjects rejoice and the attributes and the heights
Your joy is what the rain-watered grass grows

2. And your well-being is not envied as long as the first lasts
You have been loved through the ages to the last

3. So you are the spring of the year, the most fertile of its people
Watered by heavy rains, so it is the greenest fresh

4. And the morning sun makes the growing plants flourish
And guides the straying tyrant afterwards

5. When days were generous to you with glories
The saddened one is delighted and the delighted one cheers

6. As consecutive rains follow each other
Quenching the extinct glories

7. Your obedience is like that of baby camels
And your child surpasses people in obedience

8. And there is no tradition in religion but you
To you belong its limits and commands

9. And when the grateful rested assured of bounty
And were hindered by shame from generosity

10. Then no seeker of favour was seen among them
Due to the overflowing stream of bounty

11. The generous refused to stop giving for an hour
Except for continuous bestowals

12. So he prepared for benevolence a season of grace
Encompassing the righteous and the libertine

13. Like rain pouring from black clouds, equal in his eyes
Torrential and barren, it rains on all

14. And it is said "circumcised" yet it is a flood of virtues
To its rushing among the houses like torrents

15. With it the brocade and the velvet bear witness
As well as the sheen of blossoms and plaited pearl strings

16. And a stream of seas returned pebbles to being carnelian
Stepped on by feet and hooves yet it is for all rain

17. Its number transcends pebbles and its light surpasses
The stars of the pitch-dark night though they are white flowers

18. So the outskirts of Egypt became as if they were
The prairies of a bride adorned with flowers

19. The efforts of an Imam whose goodness encompassed the land
So whoever was absent from him was present in his generosity

20. An Imam who fears Allah in his solitude
And works for a day when secrets are tested

21. He has mercy encompassing the grossness of sins
And those whose crimes have let loose calamities

22. He turns away from the disgraced without blaming
And is forbearing toward his enemies though able

23. He refrains from conceiving evil or enacting it
So his thoughts are safe and the beginnings

24. When a frightened fugitive takes refuge in his land
Neither is the land infertile nor the times barren

25. Tenderness of the breeze and tips of spears and swords
Testify to his gentleness and might

26. The statuesque mountain envies his composure
When tolerance triumphs and rashness takes wing

27. He shatters the hardship of straitened times with his resolve
Yet he is magnanimous to the poor with his generosity

28. His rule is just between the subjects
But with wealth and accusations he is unjust

29. My sincerity composing his praise poem delights me
Even if my eyelids were awake while praising him until dawn

30. The commands of the luminous one have not ceased to shine
Though darkness prevailed and dawn is nigh
