1. Your wise course is God's, made manifest
In your fair deeds we clearly trace His hand
١. لِلَّهِ مَلّاحُكَ اللَبيبُ وَقَد
أَبدى لَنا مِن فِعالِهِ حَسَنا
2. You launched your ship upon the boundless main
Yet by the law of nature ships bear men
٢. قَد حَمَلَ البَحرَ في سَفينَتِهِ
وَعادَةُ البَحرِ يَحمِلُ السُفُنا
