1. Is there no denier of the prosperous days of intimacy?
Yet I have a witness to the sincerity of affection.

2. You were told that I hate you,
So do not listen to what my envious enemies say about me.

3. By God, turning away from you is not out of boredom,
How can I turn away when my passion is increasing?

4. But beware of the slanderers whose eyes
Watch over us even if they show affection hypocritically.

5. I call out to you out of longing and infatuation,
Though our homes are separated by great distances.

6. How often I walked the paths of night, but could not find
A way as the means to reach you narrowed.

7. How often my eyes sought in people a glorious and generous one,
But the call replied that none is glorious except

8. The One praised and worshipped, the One who
Can attain wishes if a seeker comes desiring Him.

9. Abu al-Fadl, Abd Allah ibn Muhammad,
Upon his face are witnesses to his generosity.

10. From the heaven of nobility, he has the perfume of his origin
And his kindness to the needy is manifest.

11. At his doors success remains constant,
If a newcomer passes by, he returns as a regular.

12. Fate never disappointed the hopes of a seeker
Who sought refuge in it, except favours came to him.

13. To it the destitute throng, and around it
For every layabout, means arrive.

14. If the seeker of Abu al-Fadl's bounty sleeps,
His munificence does not sleep from pursuing its goals.

15. He restored the pride of people's praise,
So he remains envied by all people.

16. His gifts to people, none remain but them
For the return of a gentle and constant bestowal.

17. They almost speak to him in the gentlest speech
Above all people for the beauty of righteous deeds.

18. Whoever does not live forever, by people's praise,
If he dies, remains immortal.

19. His habit is not to disappoint any asker,
So excellent among people are these habits!

20. Abu al-Fadl, with you poetry is hypocritical,
And with the one lofty through your ascent, it is futile.

21. If the archers miss the basin of the generous one,
Yours will guide them with favours.

22. If the deprived turns away from you,
When fearing to approach, he returns to you.

23. I see rain missing from fate for a while,
While your bounty remains, unvanquished by fate.

24. Your outpouring surpasses the torrents of seas,
Though they are seven and you are but one.

25. Were it not for you, O son of Muhammad,
Generosity would have died, and you are its parent.

26. You rose above praising people out of majesty,
So poems spread your praise far and wide.

27. Your star in the mansion of fortune is ascendant,
And your glory rising to the highest place.

28. The souls of enemies desire you, O son of Muhammad,
So what envier do you have in kindness from your palm?

29. If I try praising you for good,
What opponent do I have among God's creation?

30. And if I try praising you for other than Him,
What helper do I have among all people?

31. So stay safe, O son of the mighty, renewing
Glory, untouched by calamities.
