1. With my fathers in faith who left shining traces
And upon insight the light of their wisdom arises

2. And with Malik, fortress of law and piety
Whose mysteries have been broadcast in the lands

3. And with this ocean of religion, gem of guidance
Pole of existence, its crown and dignity

4. Al-Shafi'i the brilliant, who has risen
Above the Pleiades, eminent is his rank

5. And with Ahmad the master, the noble one who became
Preserving hadith his motto and his cloak

6. Save your servant from Hellfire's blaze
And make his place to be in Gardens of bliss

7. And aid him in this world and the next and make
My master in the neighborhood of the Best of Messengers his homes
