1. Khalid was exemplary in his deeds, following the example of Barmack,
So glory to him, splendid and innate,

2. And those who aspire were called before him
With words implying their demise contained a sign,

3. They were named with a question wherever they settled,
Even if among them was a noble elder,

4. So he named them visitors, covering over them,
Thus his curtains over the guided are veils.
