**O protector of the land of Iran through your kingship, Manifestation of divine grace from the court of God, Among the horsemen of Fars, you are the finest rider, You are the planter of the tree of generosity, Heir to the throne of Kay Kāvus and Jamshid, Shah Abbas, son of the kings of Persia.**

**Several important points stand out in this letter:** - The use of the word *Iran* - The use of the term *Fars* - Reference to mythical Persian kings, showing a deep familiarity with the *Shahnameh* - And perhaps most notably, the fact that the poem and the letter were written in **Persian**!
