O you who has manifested to fill

Upon you—the yearning youth.

With heightened radiance.

With the excess of illumination

I have not become bored at all while others went astray

From the state of lovers.

Who is there for the confused distraught one

My greetings sent to the perfections

Who was singled out for the Ascension,

Who was privileged with ascension

The family of my wishes and goals

Through them, so I want for nothing.

With them I have no need

Abdul Ghani has surpassed
