And protects them from all harm and shame.

2. Were I not certain they're infallible,
My heart would weep tears, inconsolable.

And terror rends all hearts it seems.

4. In their asking and answers intertwined,
Virtue sighs, and healing's undermined.

5. How can plaints of His bounty e'er cause loss?
His existence for creation is gain across.

6. A wonder - his devotees in meadows of dew,
While the highest realm is aloof from him too.

7. His views are white, cutting sharp dissent,
His raiment saffron, down broad ways sent.

8. Sorrow drew grief to weaken his health,
So time's oppressed are fearful in stealth.

For slaves defend kings from harm's brim.

For distress' water flowed, though rough.

And reached loved ones, conclusive and shrewd.

Fear departed, and every glance tamed.

No friend despairs or wavers in faith.

14. Soul of the world, secret of highness, essence of guidance,
Singular in gathering virtue's shards for alliance.

15. For religion and life, by his being kept safe,
Even those under his care marvel and waive.

16. O beauty of his innocence `gainst a nation,
Without him, torment upon them would weigh like spoliation.

17. Ensnared in misleading doubts, clouded in dim,
His guidance shone light, their mis`ry made slim.

18. His rule filled nights with turmoil rife,
Events suddenly turned, full of strife.

19. The life of the chosen Yahya in the throes,
Even the doves sobbed during his woes.

20. Nay, spring with its blooms could not appease,
Despite its peerless blossoms and breeze.

21. All but him seemed to change in their ways,
Even the rooftop singers lost their lays.

22. Seclusion prevailed, minds wandered away,
As sorrows arose at the start of day.

23. Shelter's cold seemed like scorching rays,
Sweet living seemed a toxic craze.

24. The brightening whitener itself grew dark,
The expanding space itself grew stark.

25. As if hours of anguish were ages long,
Hearts roamed, distressed by sorrow's throng.

26. But now the distant goal feels close at hand,
The unreachable wish feels near and grand.

27. Horizons of doom loom for unbelievers,
While rest awaits hearts of faithful believers.

28. Scenes and dwellings now exude delight,
As do couches and shelters invite site.

29. Safety he found, so times make peace,
Fears reassure and perils cease.

30. Blessings descend on him in a queue,
As gifts of life align in view.

31. A king sanctified, exalted his station,
His royal traits and disposition.

32. Supreme perfection is agreed his right,
None in the worlds can match his might.

33. In prose or verse of his feats told,
All sights and sounds hunger to behold.

34. His house surpassed the stars' climb,
As God's home overshadows celestial shine.

35. Of his ornate qualities, prominent is wisdom,
That frustrated Mu'awiyah and discernment bespoke.

Abundant his bounty and little his spite.

37. His nature tells of dignity and poise,
In good he still competes and employs.

38. His vision's lofty goal is clear and high,
As if atop his throne it fills the sky.

39. If the world boasts of him and his reign,
Its kings are but servants in his domain.

40. My lord, your servant pleads for your grace,
As his heart's daughters seek your embrace.

41. Behold him at your door, tireless in his knock,
Though oft rebuffed, he withstands each shock.

42. Joy returns to congratulate the occasion's boon,
As days of celebration prolong soon.

43. He wishes eloquence granted to sing your praise,
So his odes and poems your glory raise.

44. But pleading acceptance is sufficient reason,
As truth strives to immortalize your season.
