لما غَدا بِهْروزُ مُتَّقياً

ربَّ العُلى في السر والجهرِ

When Bahroz became devout

The Lord of the Highest protected him openly and in secret

ألقى عليه من مهابتهِ

سِراً مُطاعَ النَّهي والأمْرِ

And cast upon him from His awe

Obedience to His prohibitions and commands in private

فنجاحُهُ في كل مُطَّلَبٍ

فرضٌ على الأيام والدهرِ

So his success in every goal

Became incumbent upon the days and fate

فعلامَ يُعجبُ من سعادتهِ

في سدَِّ ماءٍ جاءَ أو حَفْرِ

Why then wonder at his good fortune

In stopping the flow of water or digging a well

وهو الذي سنَّتْ خلائقهُ

لينَ الثَّرى وقَساوةَ الصَّخرِ

When it is He who created his qualities

To soften the earth and the hardness of stone

فإذا تنكَّر فهو صُمُّ صَفاً

ولدى الرضا مُتهلِّلُ القطْرِ

So if he seems strange, he is protecting himself

And in being pleased, the rain flows freely

فحمى أبا الخير المُجاهد من

حلاَّهُ بالمعروفِ والنَّصْرِ

May the protector of good and the warrior

Reward him with kindness and victory
