1. Your longing reached me from the land of Iraq
Bearing gifts and supplies

2. How can life be sweet after the company
Of those with whom I was among the deputies

3. Tribes from far and near gathered
So they are all devoted to the Family of Rabie

4. The caravan travelers pass by praising them
Upon it many virtues are loaded

5. To you Abu Al-Abbas have yearned its people
With songs and tongues and minds

6. You are the forehead of the kingdom, rather you are its hearing
You are the tongue of the kingdom when you speak

7. And the kingdom has scales, your hands its beam
Moving with kindness wherever it moves
