The Faghfoor Welcomes Khosrow to Chin

From C4.34, Khosrow’s Embassy to the Faghfoor and Makran. It illustrates C4.34.30–40:

C4.34.30
The Khan and Faghfoor came to meet the king,Their blessings and apologies to bring.
C4.34.31
With chiefs they met him on the royal way,Three stages short of Chin in bright array.
C4.34.32
The road was cleared and leveled like a hand;Both vale and plain seemed dwellings through the land.
C4.34.33
With food and clothes the road was well supplied,With feast adornments, carpets spread beside.
C4.34.34
And when the troops approached a city’s gate,Each road and byway they would decorate.
C4.34.35
They hung rich brocade on the walls around,And showered saffron, dirhams, to the ground.
C4.34.36
The Faghfoor, now at ease before the king,Went first, the Shah into his halls to bring.
C4.34.37
He said, “We serve the monarch’s high command,If we are worthy servants in his land.
C4.34.38
Your fortune made the world both rich and bright;Your friends’ hearts now are filled with pure delight.
C4.34.39
Though these halls scarcely merit your abode,Yet surely they are no worse than the road.”
C4.34.40
Illustrious Khosrow entered at his side,And took the famous throne in royal pride.
