1. O sword of Allah's religion, live in peace
For as long as you live with it gloriously

2. And blood of scholars lasts as long as
This world, so you are the learned protector

3. Indeed he who aspires to attain glorious
Achievements you have built

4. How many battles with the Romans attributed
Your name in this world with them running

5. You refrained except from souls which
You are sharing with them forever

6. And how many glances of which the tears
Of humiliation are flowing

7. You are humiliating the enemies wherever
They are and honoring friends wherever they are

8. How much the horses complain to you when
Galloping, are you being too harsh on them?

9. You let them loose in raids until the stout
And weak among them became equal

10. These are the rhyming prose of Al-Khaliwahi
From which no eccentric word departs

11. Composed freely by Al-Kindi but
The willing and unwilling can't be equal

12. And the fine robes of honor are my right
For what I said and the galloping mare
