 in addition to your kindness since you were the one who stirred it up from its watchfulness and the one who raised it from its slumber. therefore it became the more abundant of the two shares for you and the more solid of the two causes added to you. and if i fell short of the goal then i am the one who was lost without you. and if i did reach it then your virtue is more evident and your portion is more abundant. because i was not active for it except through you and i did not depend in it except on you.
في جنب إحسانك، إذ كنت المثير له من مراقبه، والباعث له من مراقده. فلذلك صار أوفر النصيبين لك، وأمتن السببين مضافا إليك. وإن كنت قد قصرت عن الغاية، فأنا المضيع دونك. وإن كنت قد بلغتها ففضلك أظهر وحظك أوفر. لأني لم أنشط له إلا بك، ولا اعتمدت فيه إلا عليك.
