It was translated into Turkish, by an unnamed author, on the order of Prince Hasan Beg, who is obviously Ouzoun Hasan, of the White Sheep Turkoman clan (871-883 AH = 1466-1478). The name of a sultan of Constantinople, Sultan Mohammed, appears in a copy of the British Museum, in which we see Mohammed II (855-886 AH = 1451-1481), which dates back to exactly the same period. The Kiran-i Habeshi is linked to the gesture of the struggle of Iran and Turan; it relates the adventures of Kobad, son of Ardeshir I, king of Syria, who conquered Persia, who had three sons, Khosrau Shir, Ardeshir, Ǧihanguir, and who asked for Khosrau Shir the daughter of the Roman emperor, of Kiran-i Habeshi, of two ladies, Shemse, daughter of Iriǧ, king of China, and Goul. Kobad, helped by Kiran-i Habesbi, who commands his troops, and plays in this novel the role of Roustem in the Book of Kings, attacks Iriǧ, king of Turan and China, and beats him soundly. This copy of the novel is complete, although the indications of the volume number seem to be made to conceal a deception: the last leaf of No. 335 and the first of Nos. 336 and 337 were torn off, as if to remove the indications of the original volume number, and they were replaced, at the beginning of the 17th century, by leaves bearing the indication of volumes II and III, at the head of their initial chapters. The external appearance and the constants of these three volumes prove that they are part of the same copy.

There we find the story of the war that Ǧihanguir and Ardeshir, son of Kobad, son of Ardeshir, support, with the help of Kiran-i Habeshi, against Iriǧ, king of Turan and China. No. 337, given as volume III, begins with the story of the defeat that the Iranian army inflicted on the army of Kashmir; it contains the story of the triumph of Iran over Turan, the defeat of Iriǧ, and the elevation of Kiran-i Habeshi to the sovereignty of Balkh, all with the intervention of demons and sorcerers, as in all similar works..
