1. He hides his joy when his wishes are fulfilled,
And clouds are described as heavy when water pours from them.

2. The noblest man conceals his generosity,
While the coward boasts of valor he does not possess.

3. So praise reveals the good deeds he hid,
As stones on a mountainside conceal the blowing wind.

4. The persecuted and protected both seek its shelter,
Like water where the lion and the lamb come to drink.

5. The rich and the poor both yearn to attain it,
Like the breeze, suitable both for wakeful and asleep.

6. With determination like lightning bright and flashing,
Victory comes to him in pouring rain.

7. If not for the good fortune bound to his resolve,
I would think it as far away as the planet Jupiter.
