1. Memories pass as lessons repeat,
Life folds for their wisdom then unfurls,

2. Memories through which each adversity flees,
Life's essence by them turns bitter.

3. Memories by which hearts come alive and shine,
Their echoes and bonds thereby shatter.

4. Memories of the Messenger - what memories!
What can I say of them, how can I express?

5. O people, I do not exaggerate here,
For Muhammad's virtues are beyond measure.

6. An example that exhausts the mind in counting,
Too great for pages to deliver.

7. His traits point to him as an ocean,
With depths unfathomed, shores immeasurable.

8. People stood at its public shores,
Amazed by what they saw, confused.

9. Forgive me, O Messenger of God, you who came
With a law like the dawn, nay, brighter.

10. You who was sent to an unlettered nation,
Stumbling at the fringes of blindness.

11. To a nation whose elders and young
Grumbled about what afflicted them.

12. They saw the light of trust in you shining,
Truth dripping from your guidance, flowing.

13. You were virtue's fountain and guide,
From you came gentleness, dew bursting forth.

14. Your birth gave rise to all virtues,
Vice faded away, evil vanished.

15. The greatest fortress of injustice cracked,
Where Chosroes had once swaggered.

16. He fell back, stunned, turning his eyes,
As though lost in a dream's illusion.

17. Yet that dream-like illusion was reality -
The world transformed, change unchanging.

18. Despite dark eras, a great sign remains
Of the fate of those who were arrogant.

19. O people, God is not unaware,
For God is Watchful, Seeing all.

20. He rewards the faithful for their faith,
And prepares Hellfire for unbelievers.

21. O people, does progress mean that we
Call for what dawn calls to?

22. O people, does progress mean that we
Mock religion and sacred law?

23. That we intentionally deviate
From Muhammad's guidance, twist and turn away?

24. And foolishly seek from France its laws
After centuries have passed it by?

25. Storms of its injustice blew over the world,
As if locusts swarmed over it.

26. O laws that were never truly
But what Caesar desired and fancied.

27. Will the Quran be suspended in its lands
And the Franks' constitution spread as we resign?
