[xcvi] A hyperbolical description of each of the nine months during which the grain is coming to maturity; the tenth, or harvest time, is compared with the birth of Mahomed, and the incantation closes with a prayer for an abundant crop.
Bintang mara chuacha limpat;
Ka-dua limpat di langit;
Ka-tiga limpat di bumi;
Ka-ampat ayer sambayang;
Ka-lima pintu mazahap;
Ka-anam pintu rezuki;
Ka-tujoh pintu mahaligei;
Ka-dilapan pintu shurga;
Ka-sambilan anak di-kandong ibu;
Ka-sapuloh Mahomed jadi.
Jadi sakilian jadi.
Bayan Allah didalam rongga batu.
Lagi ada rezuki;
Deri hulu deri hilir
Saref mengaref;
Deri sina ka daksina
Manghantar rezuki
Bertambah bertambun.
The gloriously resplendent stars lighting the firmament are the first;
The full refulgence is the second;
The fulness spreading over the earth is the third—causing abundance;
The fourth the blessed waters, harbingers of fertility;
The fifth the four gates of the world, pouring out plenty.
The sixth is the door to the abundance of food;
The seventh is the portal of the palace;
The eighth the floor of Surga or Heaven;
The ninth the pregnant mother;
The tenth (i.e., the harvest) month the birthday of Mahomed (the luckiest day of the year);
May all prove prosperous,
May dry grain prosper.
May the hand of the Almighty appear in the filling of the husk, as the hole in a rock is shut up by degrees.
From above, from below, let plenty always flow,
From East and West may abundance ever increasing pour in.
