1. Do not weep from the separation of parting,
For they are witnesses to proclaimed love,

2. And keep your patience as long as you can,
For it is a support for your heart if both stand firm together.

3. A heart struck by eyes, ceaselessly
Disturbed by delusions, terrified,

4. Why did it block me at their hostility,
When they bid me farewell and wished me well?

5. And from confusion – I saw it
In their harshness and asked the ribs about it,

6. When I escorted them for three days
My patience, my restraint, and my heart escorting.

7. Or did you not beware when you shepherded his flock
In it you protect religion, that most virtuous one?

8. Umar ibn Shahanshah, who inhabits
The pillars of the Levant’s kingdom when they crumbled,

9. The enemy submitted after your empowerment
To you, and your enemy’s right is to submit.

10. From a group of insolent people who regard
All they did not expend in generosity as squandered,

11. In Egypt and Yemen we confronted them
In our time, following Joseph, a follower.

12. The two havens with the kingdom of Egypt, Mecca,
Levant and Yemen, the four fortunes,

13. When the enemies disobeyed with the defiant one, their blood
Flowed freely, poured out forcibly.
