1. Shine your light, do not spare the afflicted
For you are in the universe a cure for melancholy

2. You are the resolute one who revived people with what
You clarified of the symbols of knowledge and deed

3. The corners of countries became peaceful thanks to you, so
Among the servants of God there is no dispute

4. Until you became in the horizon of glory a guiding moon
Without peer, most honorable garments upon it

5. How many resolves did you build, imam of the kingdom,
Lofty like you, far above the example

6. And how many tribulations did you deflect that you confronted
With wisdom and rationale, not with force and weapons

7. And how much did you give and how many favors did you bestow
And how much did you accomplish and how many flaws did you fix

8. You busied yourself with the world, so it is right for it
To entice you in play away from worries

9. It is just to give yourself what you gave of prosperity
To the commoner from ease of living

10. For you are the most high, the furthest extent, and the whole universe
And the age, so face the world at your leisure

11. And remember your servants, and encompass them with feeling
For your consideration leaves no disquietude

12. Are you not the heart of the universe, singular
Reviver of hearts, healer of illness and afflictions

13. For God's sake you are among the lofty ones an unwavering
Highly determined man, who does not waver or stumble

14. The wanderer glance at you
As an arrow of truth in a palm tree of hope

15. He says to the sword if his comrade envies him
Fall short of us, for seriousness is not jest

16. And in your right hand is the blade of the trenchant, for it
Earnestness, and you are an imam to the generous

17. When it is unsheathed no hero remains
As if in its blade is the harbor of death

18. You have a smile by which wounds are healed, and by it
The dawn of the universe was delighted and bashful

19. And a gentle hand, I said the spirit of comfort was its element
By which people became like the complacent drinker

20. Yours is the praise, the people of earth unfurled
The flags of your glory over plain and mountain

21. And the fingers of glory drew in the eminent
With its light your name preserved forever
