Sol 5.6

  1. May your well-being bring joy to the Muslims,

    and may their souls, every one, be your ransom.

  2. For God has fulfilled what they desire,

    and God has brought to pass what they hope for.

  3. You went forth to war and were granted a mighty victory;

    you assailed, and a manifest conquest was granted you in full.

  4. With a sword you struck in the cause of God,

    strengthening dominion, this world, and the Faith.

  5. Many a city of idolatry you set your course for,

    then left it as a sign for those who inquire.

  6. The trusts of glory you took upon yourself,

    and over them proved strong and trustworthy.

  7. You rose to action, satisfying the souls within us,

    and returned, cooling our eyes.

  8. Thus God disappointed no hope placed in you,

    nor did God belie any expectation of you.

  9. May you then be preserved, an impregnable, lofty fortress,

    and long remain noble, mighty, firmly established.
