1. The journey ahead is good, so let's march on,
How excellent the fate tomorrow brings victory.

2. Had the High One not drawn near,
The horizons would not have shone with light.

3. Had it not flowed into hearts,
This secret would not have brought joy.

4. Had these emigrants and nobles not become coolness for us,
The homelands would not have come near.

5. Tomorrow the giver of good tidings will come to us from there,
And we will see the guide, the warner.

6. And with him hopes will be fulfilled,
And tears will flow from the eyes.

7. And his chamber will appear, and from beneath the veils will emanate its fragrance,
Wiping away the darkness. And nights will be erased by the mornings.

8. Where the honorable angels pass through its gardens,
And the places of descent of the Trustworthy Spirit, though hidden, are manifest.

9. And revelation descends upon it, and it has the daybreaks,
Its horizons and its fragrances.

10. You see the gardens and trees, so what are the orchards and streams?
The burdens of sins have departed, and fears of the hunter are gone.

11. The youth has nothing left to fear,
With them the rewards have replaced the sins.

12. Happy are the visitors of the Messenger, and this love is bliss.
The Lord, Most Forgiving, has guaranteed salvation for them in his house.

13. Their reward is the Abode of Bounty, and thus does the Grateful reward.
Gardens of Eden, which only the steadfast will experience uncovering.

14. Their servants and companions therein are immortal youths and maidens.
I yearn for the era of the Guide, for it is a brief respite

15. Between arrival and between the days of purpose, a short time.
And however much the flowers have delighted us in it,

16. None are happy except those the Resurrection includes.
They will come with the companions when

17. They are resurrected and the graves are strewn about.
No fear or faltering when the time of crossing comes,

18. Rather like flashes of lightning veering from their glow.
They supported him and followed his guidance,

19. And turned away from his enemies in disavowal.
They are the people of that, all worthy of elevating his status.

20. When deeds came to them, their presence brought them joy.
They opposed his enemies with their valor, and they were few in number.

21. They sacrificed themselves, so the heights were ennobled.
And through them the light of hearts appeared, and that light has no light.

22. And their throats were exposed to arrows - excellent are those throats!
They are in their mantles, with oceans as their provision.

23. Ask about them on the day of Badr, and about the enemies, for He is All-Aware.
When the multitudes of Quraish approached in their ignorance, deluded by vain pride.

24. And they saw them as an insignificant band compared to their great throng.
So they were met with steadfastness, and there was no weakness in them.

25. They sought Paradise, so their exalted souls submitted.
And for their meeting the chambers and palaces were adorned.

26. So their Lord, the All-Powerful, supported them on their day.
And the angels carried out His commands among them.

27. Good tidings from Allah, the Protector, by which hearts are reassured.
By it the religion became pride of effort, and the arrogant were foiled.

28. He whose defender is God, Him alone suffices as protector.
Ask about them - the Confederate tribes - what met with Quraizah and Nadir,

29. Or the day the trench engulfed the people of disbelief in conflagration,
When their swords held back their onslaught by a third.

30. As if they were predatory birds and their companions hunting falcons.
And how many decisive stands they took in battle!

31. By it the true religion ascended, like the towering Pleiades.
And they are the foremost narrators of his accounts, as ages endure.

32. And by following him they became imams when matters resembled each other.
And by the wisdom among them the signs of his way appeared, illuminating.

33. And by their examples the rules of his nation revolved.
And how much he arbitrated in situations when they were present!

34. No early glory remains except theirs, and neither any later.
May God send prayers on him as long as a mournful poet laments,

35. Or as long as a branch sways over a dune.
And upon his companions - what peers do they have in piety?

36. No moon of mine has waned, no she-camel bellowed, and no camel grunted.
