1. Do you remember the people of valleys and hills?
Or has neighbor been replaced with neighbor?

2. You let your tears stop in their orbits
Mocking and mocking in the cheeks

3. My state is like one longing for the breeze, so if
The breeze blows to cheer and enliven me

4. When the nightingales sing at dawn
In the sandy valleys they intoxicate and entrance me

5. And whenever the lightning of the caves smiles
In the sky it excites my sorrows and grief

6. I stood in the neighborhood after the looters but
I only see beasts or traces of gazelles

7. O abode of woes, calamities have befallen it
Replace it with aloes trees and sand dunes

8. I have long been a frequenter and a sitter
Where my brethren and companions were

9. So how much does the bereaved woman yearn for
Najd and moisten my shroud with her tears

10. No - by Him who established mountains firmly
And made permanence endure and all else ephemeral

11. Neither has Layla remained nor has Layla in Al Ghuwair or
Rather she is my heart's love yes and bountiful

12. I fell for the best of creations from Mudar
Master of Quraish the lineage of Qahtan and Adnan

13. God’s guidance in life and his chosen one
After him he guides all the lost

14. By God no female conceived or gave birth
To one like Ahmad from Qass or Dabbah

15. He refined the honor of existence through him
And privileged him with proofs and eloquence

16. Among a nation whose guide he was while it had
No worship but idols and statues

17. Essence of secrets, core of cores from Mudar
Overflowing in grace, none matches him

18. Protector of sanctities, master of masters, bravest of
Those who fought for God openly and in secret

19. No aide remains for polytheism to feel secure
Or supporter who transgressed and oppressed

20. And the religion of Islam has emerged
With truth, people now feel safe and faithful

21. Falsehood was replaced with righteousness, misguidance with guidance
On earth, he singularized religion after religions

22. Its verses openly stated in Torah, evident
In Psalms, Bible and Furqan

23. How much did his brilliance inform us before his mission
With good tidings through monks and priests

24. When did his birth lights dawn upon us
From Hejaz to Basra and Canaan

25. Continuous were the signs of his advent, neither
Did the eternal fire extinguish, nor the palace cleave

26. And miracles beyond the moving sands, if written
Would not be contained by waters of Sayhan and Jayhan

27. Oh companion, if in days you fear injustice
From an oppressive tyrant or unjust ruler

28. And you cannot find in the land a free man of nobility
Whose aid is hoped for or who forgives the sinner

29. Then hold on to the one who glorified Hasbaya in his hand
And seek the generous, absolver of sins

30. Muhammad, master of both worlds and humankind
And both groups of Arab and non-Arab

31. And say by the grace of his religion, they are
The two excellent, glorious, lofty masters

32. And trust the rope of the martyr of the abode after them
The Sheikh Al-Karama, Uthman ibn Affan

33. Then attain the ultimate pinnacle, Abu Al-Hasan
And excel him too, and the generous blinded him

34. Imams, God beautified existence through them
Precious sons of precious mothers

35. No wonder they made me through their grace
Salman between them after Salman

36. Or honored my poetry’s worth which is their trait
Or gave me good tidings like Hassaan

37. Praise be to God, they are my pillar and my support
And my salvation, and my spirit and basil

38. My master, O Messenger of God, O my hope
My refuge, my shelter the day I meet my ruin

39. Grant me by your status what I have forwarded of mistakes
Generously, and by your grace make my scale weigh heavy

40. And hear my prayers and relieve me
Of afflictions and the anguish of all my sorrows

41. For you are nearer than any whose affections
I hope for, though my homes and lands are far

42. And in you O son of Khalil Allah tomorrow
I take refuge from the evil of my mistakes and disobedience

43. Your plentiful gifts fold and unfold me
With favors and the spring of kindness irrigates me
