" As he sits in the saddle and the hand The bridle leads, portrays a picture on the wall. His heart and his courage are the same lions, His two hands are equal currents. Gold, where he sits, he may donate from; O death, where he fights, he likes to send out; Extinguishing the battlefield dust with blood, Versprühend the sword crystal tide. His cheek a purple flower, Jung is his age, his happiness, his heart. ... As Rudabe the speech heard Your pomegranate blossom came to the cheeks. Her heart was full of love to fire Zal, Sleep and appetite her since passed. "
