1. O glory's wildness, trust in intimacy
The sun has shed the garb of darkness

2. And O Zawra's fever, did it forbid
Your pasture from the forearm of Al-Khadiri, the most valiant

3. After you had been far due to his voice
The landing place of every disputant and smooth talker

4. The serpent returned writhing on the ground
With its water it kissed every dryness

5. And the green oasis of Al-A’la spread
So the palm trees and rods are clad

6. And the glory of religion returned in his days
The religion of dew as if it had not waned

7. Merit was honored by it as if it had not been infringed
And the eminent arose as if they had not sat

8. And the paths of purpose became clear
To the searching guide on the obscure roads

9. So O stirrer of the stallion, restrain its clamor and O
Sender of the steeds of hope, withhold them

10. You both have sufficed in stirring them up
And driving them into the night sea of branches

11. Luck came to you both and you did not gamble
With a she-camel among it or a horse

12. You did not strike their necks and haunches
Eagerly for traveling by night or armor

13. Fate returned pleasure to the eyes
And the soul of souls returned to the selves

14. With sweet and bitter against his enemies
And the reckless, dignified, wise assembly

15. With a Babylonian whose wealth was not withheld
And a Samarian whose honor was not touched

16. Most wondrous, his opinions do not stumble
Upon any convoluted or ambiguous problem

17. When fate frowns, he proceeds willingly
With his resolve in a moon or kindling

18. Neither a deceitful Hashimite who did not learn
Nor a greedy admirer who did not measure

19. The days snatched from him a harvest
With his merit though old age was not geriatric

20. And the mothers of censure prolonged in eulogy
While he is near them with the planted

21. The blossom ferments in his wrappings
At his cheeks until the murky gloom

22. So if anger swells in his chest
Watch the frowning face and frown

23. It cast him into the celestial bowl so he rose
To the degrees of the solemn, lofty house

24. You are of his ethics in disposition
And of his protective zeal in inspiration

25. A house that God has said, a house like it
Has not been built or founded for me

26. The generosity of rain and in its corners
Are the landing places of revelation and the Spirit of Holiness

27. And from it branched Mecca and Tayba
They diverged and from it the Holy House

28. A people then through whom we are an interval
The relief of distress and clarity of confusion

29. They carried legs upon the Path
Else their heads would have stumbled

30. And they smashed passion and emptied folly
Changing the old to the smooth

31. Because of them, skulls of polytheism vanished
Whose soil was never trodden from glory

32. They marched with the crowns of kings among us
Tied to resolute spears

33. O people of the chambers, they awakened
The insights of wretched hearts for integrity

34. And they took to the spacious meadow
People from the narrowness of confusing ignorance

35. They spoke and so they were generous as if
Thunder had not rumbled nor torrents burst forth

36. You alone speaking truth, obedience to you
From every speaker and mute

37. And by your father his love and hatred
Tomorrow the benefactor will see the loss of the wretched

38. And you are who you are, following them
A button running after lentils

39. A slave who owns himself would ransom you
Weak of forearms, feeble in resolution

40. Faults eat him yet he does not remove them
From his honor with his money, patched

41. If the humiliation of stinginess strangled him, he would not
Say a dinar, take a breath

42. He raids your father thinking masked
The glory of ancestry with the disgrace of souls

43. Joined to you so he rebelled and allied
The mark of the wise, he matched its stubbornness with impudence

44. He returned under the shade of his house and your
Efforts were fruitless in barren lands

45. You seize the right of glory forcibly and justly
While the lion is not shamed by ferocity

46. So shock thereby bodies, striking their throats
With the shocking blow of a young man immersed

47. And rise, we will seek it loftily
Either for the goal of glory or the spearhead

48. For the sword unless it steps forward boldly
Is an idle stick and the lion a home guard dog unless it hunts

49. The bearer of good tidings called and my heart is an ember
For longing, who will kindle for him, let him light

50. While separation has isolated me so I have no
Comfort after you except my anguish from a companion

51. And continuous remoteness appears to me
How I hoped from the intimacy of the desolate

52. He called and I was too weak to answer him
As if my soul was created from a breath

53. This pure son of the pious so the demon
Of my passion prevailed and my whisperer seduced me

54. And it was said possessed but one who has
A heart that erred though it was not touched

55. What a gain secretly so I was not
Troubled and my mind was not muddled

56. Sweeter than nearness when my eyes had their fill
From a fleeting glimpse of the secretive

57. Abundant love, not as you accord me
A trickle of water and little to quench thirst

58. And thanks for what expanded from manners
Though its garment was not soiled by distance

59. Pure, if you wipe my sides
From the affection of a people of filthy evil

60. You knew me while people denied me
And your search found me with discernment and inquiry

61. I entrusted you with merit so neither its rights
Were lost with you nor was the covenant forgotten

62. The least I expected you to reward
Was an eternal reward in imprisonment

63. Wandering with your name at every resting place
But you were not content nor married

64. Like houris in their tents secluded
And among the oryx with the sheep at pasture

65. From what my palm trees contained, magic spread
In their lively snakes of molting skin

66. Every wiper leaves behind but my hands
Blood on their fangs and canine teeth

67. Covering you, not shy of dawn
Nor fearing at night the creeping of insects

68. So you are forever roaming among them
And scents in the clothes of the bridegroom

69. So listen to her and greet her connection
And beware of ignoring her and take precautions

70. And dispense with me and make me needless of a people
Whose superiority between us was never studied

71. I seek refuge from being soft with them with my tangled hair
And my fawning among them with my garment

72. I healed their honor and lived among them
Whenever it declined and stooped

73. The wish to meet them preceded what I said to them
On my tongue that my speech was mute to them

74. So if they are deluded or disappoint me
Then I am not distressed by that
