Sol 6.1

  1. O our Lord, You are the Almighty.

    You are the Gentle One and the All-Aware.

  2. Strengthen our sultan for us,

    And be Yourself his Helper.

  3. We have come to You, my Lord, spreading

    Our palms and raising them,

  4. Through the Chosen One, seeking intercession,

    For he is the Intercessor and the bearer of glad tidings.

  5. We have come to You, my Lord, in hope;

    To Your sanctuary we flee for refuge.

  6. And You are the best of those in whom hope is placed,

    And You are our great Master.

  7. So, O Succor of the one who cries for help,

    You, my Lord, come to our aid.

  8. By Adam, and likewise by Seth,

    Give aid—give us aid, O Protector!

  9. With whom but You can we seek refuge?

    And none but You grants refuge.

  10. Grant refuge—grant us refuge, O Almighty!

    And O Protector of those who seek refuge!

  11. With victory and imminent conquest,

    Favor us, O Near One.

  12. O my Lord, O excellent Answerer,

    O Mender of the broken heart.

  13. O our Lord, O our Lord,

    Remove and relieve our anguish.

  14. O my Lord, strengthen our party,

    And grant it victory, O excellent Helper.

  15. O my Lord, best of helpers,

    With victory and manifest conquest,

  16. Honor the Commander of the Faithful,

    For he is an excellent commander:

  17. Our sultan, sustained,

    Mahmud, the glorified,

  18. And he is the peerless imam,

    And the unique one, with no equal.

  19. The lion, the fierce lion,

    And the valiant hero,

  20. And the daring horseman,

    And the noble, renowned king.

  21. And, O my Lord, grant his army victory.

    O my Lord, destroy his foe.

  22. O my Lord, heighten his good fortune.

    And grant him great good fortune.

  23. And strengthen his pillars,

    And raise his edifice high,

  24. And strengthen his supporters,

    Among them, the emir and the vizier.

  25. O our Lord, O Avenger,

    Take vengeance on the foes, my Lord.

  26. Send upon them the flood of the dam;

    Seize them with it, my Lord, the Almighty.

  27. Our God, Lord of humankind,

    Grant us victory over them.

  28. Seize them, my God; do not spare

    Any of them, great or small.

  29. We hope, by God's overpowering might,

    That they draw near to their end;

  30. And God's onslaught—

    We hope You will launch it upon them.

  31. They are the band of the Greeks;

    They have transgressed against Islam.

  32. O my Lord, with death

    Seize them, and be Yourself the Destroyer.

  33. They have broken their covenants;

    So destroy their troops,

  34. And make their existence

    Come to its end.

  35. My Lord, make them drink the cup of death,

    From spears and swords.

  36. And annihilate their ranks,

    And take them to the Blaze.

  37. A people who obeyed their own perversity;

    So prolong, my Lord, their incapacity.

  38. My Lord, make their strong one

    Weaker than a little child.

  39. And with the deadly torment,

    My Lord, then destroy them;

  40. Whoever among them has not perished,

    In our hand, make him a captive.

  41. And rout their host, my God,

    And empty their abode of them.

  42. And, my Lord, hasten their destruction,

    With the annihilating sword of Your overpowering might.

  43. Bring wrath upon them without cease;

    Let ruin descend among them.

  44. Whoever among them seeks escape,

    Make him walk toward death.

  45. Change their condition for the worse;

    And shorten their lifespans;

  46. And make them and their wealth

    Become booty for us.

  47. My Lord, overturn their plans;

    And make their women widows;

  48. And cast down their banner.

    Favor us with that, O All-Aware.

  49. And with blessings and peace,

    Favor the best of creation,

  50. And his noble family and companions,

    As long as a bird has flown or shall fly.

  51. And, my Lord, grant us, O Peace,

    Goodly contentment and a good ending;

  52. And make the Abode of Peace

    Our place of return and final destination.
