1. I was granted a companion true to his word
And my progeny continues after me
١. رُزِقتُ صاحِبَ عَهدِهِ
وَتَمَّ لِيَ النَسلُ بَعدي
2. They envy me for him
And congratulate me on my bliss
٢. هُم يَحسُدوني عَلَيهِ
وَيَغبِطوني بِسَعدي
3. Neither I nor my son
Will we meet at the place of glory?
٣. وَلا أَراني وَنَجلي
سَنَلتَقي عِندَ مَجدِ
4. And my family will know
That I am the progenitor alone
٤. وَسَوفَ يَعلَمُ بَيتي
أَنّي أَنا النَسلُ وَحدي
5. So Ali do not blame me
For I did not mean to scorn you
٥. فَيا عَلي لا تَلُمني
فَما اِحتِقارُكَ قَصدي
6. You are to me as my own soul
And you are to me as you are
٦. وَأَنتَ مِنّي كَروحي
وَأَنتَ مَن أَنتَ عِندي
7. If my words have pained you
Then call your father a liar of his word
٧. فَإِن أَساءَكَ قَولي
كَذِّب أَباكَ بِوَعدِ
