1. O you who blames Ali, leave off your slander
For you cannot fault him, however you try

2. Would you blame the friend of God after his trustee
And the owner of a pool whose drink is the best drink

3. With banks of pearls and musk, its soil is ambergris
He attained water from Lujain gilded and embellished

4. Whenever his Master wills he may drink, but if an enemy wishes
He will return in disgrace, driven away and struck
