1. O mouth that I greeted with a kiss
How many envious and spiteful ones you have

2. The prince has ignited in you a light
That guides to righteousness everyone who gropes

3. Yet he has surrounded you with a fence of resolve
Against the foiled deeds of the envious

4. Their intestines writhe but
Your serene heart is steadfast

5. Religion spends the night with you exalted
And wakes while abased

6. May God make you endure from a fortress
Where the best guardian keeps vigil
