1. And where is he who restored Islam when it faltered,
And saved the people from the darkness of ignorance?

2. The Quraysh said at the dawn of his kingdom rising,
"O son of Rabia, surrender the keys!"

3. So he took charge of the matter, resolute and alone,
Unwavering in purpose, slayer of warriors.

4. When matters grow too narrow for their channels,
The hand of excellence frees each knot.

5. Verily, Rabia and excellence built
An abode of glory upon Al-Abbas outstretched.
