لا أرهبُ الغدر ممن بات يُضمره
والّلهُ ثُمَّ جَمالُ الدولةِ الحامي
I do not fear the betrayal of one who harbors it
By Allah, and then the protector of the state, the excellent
الفاضلُ الغيثَ والليث الجريء معاً
للمُستجيريْنِ في جودٍ واِقدامِ
The rain cloud and the brave lion together
For those seeking refuge, in generosity and courage
يستصرخان وشيك النصر قد عَرفا
منه سجيَّةَ مِطْعانٍ ومِطْعامِ
They cry out for imminent victory, they have known
His nature of piercing blades and provisions
اذا أناخا به والغُبْرُ عارِقَةٌ
كفاهما ٍسَغَبيْ خوفٍ واِعْدامِ
When they stop with him, though dust stirred up
It suffices them from fear of annihilation
يرْعاكَ منه وانْ شَطَّ المَزارُ به
عهدٌ كريمٌ ووِدٌّ غيرُ أهْدامِ
It pastures you from him, though the track churns with him
A noble covenant and affection, no mere ruins
