1. O Family of Mustafa, O ultimate goal and desire
We have come to you when affliction and adversity touched us

2. We say, and the affairs of time are difficult right now
Hussein, whenever a vast plain becomes constricted

3. And we were struck by grave calamities
Through your status may we be forgiven, though matters are difficult

4. They are but a single tragedy, and an easy one
And if one day truly perilous afflictions occur

5. Through your grave we seek forgiveness, though graves are many
But those who protect the visitor are few
