1. Oh, the wonder of what Muhammad supposes!
For supposition, in some respects, is misleading.

2. He reckons that kingship is under his control,
Yet beyond what he hopes, Destiny has its ways.

3. Each day he has a demise and greediness,
And casting hopes with wishes ever-flowing.

4. If he spares the lowly for a brief moment,
Over his forehead are locks and braids flowing.

5. He shows them a face pure as if engraved on it
Are features minted on dinars gold glowing.

6. He aspires to supremacy through poetry ever,
While among people are poets dormant and fervent.

7. I see a kindling brand whose cup is passed around,
Soon a day comes when for us the fire is glowing.
