1. If you wish to see us, then meet us
On the day of turmoil, when the spears clash

2. The first encounter will yield them the fruit of exaltation
Canes with which the souls in the meadows find joy

3. They drink nothing but blood in draughts
As they burst out from the lilies, lilies

4. And when the swords in battle sing to them
They shed their souls upon that singing

5. Being cautious, so if the morning sun appears
They take off the dark garments for it, darker garments

6. The day complains of their steeds' stomping
And the night complains of their teeth's glittering

7. And the intensity of their might almost
Transcends the spear, it almost makes us waver

8. And when the brave sees their resolute determination
He dislikes the spears and almost does not thrust

9. If I spend my morning with them, they
See in me a nature more gentle and soft

10. I love the gazelle and the young gazelle and sometimes
I chide myself for modesty and piety

11. Then I worry and fear the aftermath of a people
I pity the evil end of the immoral

12. And I held back the rein of my eye, striving
Until, when I grew tired, I let it loose

13. So it flowed, but in truth a tear
That kept on the cheeks a clear mark

14. O injustice of this love in its rulings
A cheek that is reddened and a glance that committed adultery

15. And I think it intended the paronomasia because it is
A glance that committed adultery when it saw a glance that glanced flirtatiously

16. O may God destroy the amorists, what do we have to do with them
We have no need of them, but how needless they are of us

17. And the beautiful Milkah was stingy and she was the proof
For stingy women, and they said this is our excuse

18. Like the full moon, except that she cannot be eclipsed
Like a branch, except that she cannot be picked

19. She was stingy with the shade of a shadow after its sickness
Have you seen one who was so stingy even with shade

20. She said, blaming whoever happens to be miserly
"So why was the stingy one called a friend by our love?"

21. And when the heart complains of the haste of purpose
She remains complaining of its excessive passion

22. And when my eyes weep she says, smiling
"Tears have breaches with us"

23. O you who blame, you are ignorant of love's merit
So you blamed in ignorance, but I

24. I saw the sun then I saw it
What fault is it of mine if I loved the most beautiful

25. And I asked: "From what mines is her mouth?"
So I found it was from Abdul Rahim's source

26. I saw the essence of her mouth and her words
So I truly knew that this was from over there

27. Those words were from the perfection in a place
That none can attain except the earnest striver

28. It comes close to minds except that they
Meet it farther away the closer it draws

29. And it moves while residing in her beauty
So wonder at that, moving while residing

30. And so the excellent is the best there can be for hearing
Its precious essence made ornamented

31. And when the pages contain it, it opens eyes
From its flowers that the eyes pour unto it

32. So the pages are a plain of silver and its lines
Are musk that grace branches out into branches

33. Thanks to God for Abdul Rahim's grace
That makes the swords safe from the defeated remnants

34. His tongue, were it not for his gratitude
For the blessing of its favor, would be mute

35. And his book, what a battalion it is for the kingdom
That leaves the enemy confused and crazy

36. It is his wall where the lines are its towers
So for that it became refined and fortified

37. And he rose with my father Ali as his pillar
Who made hoping in Him the most precious possession

38. Calling upon Him when destitution frightens him
So if he calls, success is assured

39. If you come to him, you meet a honored guest
And you find flourishing gold facilitated

40. And the face brighter, and the courtyard expanded
And honor more mighty, and highness enabled

41. He enriched and satisfied those who visited him so they all
Praise and do not refrain their reins from praise

42. Hearts praise his generosity and sometimes
Hypocrisy rides with the tongues' praise

43. How many who blame generosity said to him: Slow down
Let no errors creep in it, lest errors creep in

44. He who meets him seeking his benevolence
Vacillating in his promise, fluctuating

45. I became, praising the glorious, strictly unitarian
And so much praise came to me from his hands

46. And I started loving him, following him enthusiastically
O you who saw an enthusiast, fascinated!

47. And I saw his company as an immediate bliss
So I saw sacrificing the soul in it as trivial

48. And he wanted me, but I thought it was someone else he intended
So I saw my fate submitting ever since it submitted

49. If only my people knew that I attained rarely attained bliss
From his palms, may you make my envious enemies know for certain that ease is his simplest state!

50. So I filled my palm with your overflowing generosity
And I filled my hearing with your gentle words

51. You made me forget my family despite my suffering with them
And I remembered that I forgot my homeland

52. And I knew from my traveling that I have never ceased
Being an expatriate since I clung to the dwelling

53. How many distraught lovers cry for me and complain
Agonizingly from the separation that parted between us

54. And when he sees my traces he cries as though he is
Ruins whose era passed away with the course of fate

55. And my fate assumes it did wrong, but if it knew
My state it would be certain it did good

56. Your view of me does not cease to increase your rectitude
In accompanying me and increases my enviers' resentment

57. And there is a feast, you are a feast in it
And that's why it has become most worthy of joy through you

58. And you remained as long as survival remained, so if
Decline draws near survival, you will remain or extinction will occur
