1. May God's peace be upon you before my greetings,
And may God reward you before my words.

2. You have taken care of my affairs and been concerned with my story,
And favored me with kindness beyond my hopes.

3. You have guided me after the blocking of my paths,
And quenched my thirst after my prolonged days.

4. You have clothed me with the honor that humbled
My enemies, till I held their reins.

5. Many a foe of mine became like a master to me,
So humiliated that he was like my slave.

6. Of your blessings there remains only their perfection,
The best favor is one perfected and completed.
