And he who, like the full moon, nourishes journeys in the sky

Servant of the king and master of kings

Even in its smallness sees the world

Thus he learned how to nurture servants

His understanding has been grounded in loyalty

In his hand, when the spear girds its waist
It sheds blood and laughs

The dispute between life and death

His generous hand, joined with bounty
Is free from opening and closing

The water of his vessel dripping from face and hair

When he shows the form of secrets to the soul
When he angrily shouts at the heavens

Intellect travels his path upon its eyes
ور ببیند جمال او را حوراز ریاض دل و حیاض حبور
And if the houri sees his beauty
From the gardens of the heart and the pools of joy
کند از بهر زینت جاهشپرده داری خاک درگاهش
For the ornament of his rank she would perform
The sweeping of the dust of his threshold
خرد و جان و طبع در فرماناین سه جوید همی ز عفوش امان
Intellect, soul, and nature are under his command
These three seek safety in his forgiveness

What will that heaven of joy command
When he lifts the veil of light from his face?

It never stumbles headlong

The doors and roofs are full of spectators

O one of beautiful countenance scattering splendor
And O one of strong fortune and strong command
دست جود تو در شب دیجورپایدارست تا به روز نشور

Endures until the day of resurrection
