1. My master, may the Merciful support you in blessings,
And in praise of reverence and greatness,
١. مَوْلايَ أَيَّدَكَ الرَّحْمَنُ فِي نِعَمِ
وَفِي ثَنَاءٍ مِنَ الإِجْلالِ وَالْعِظَمِ
2. A woman pleading to God sincerely
Calls upon you, and those who call upon you are never disappointed,
٢. بِالبَابِ ضَارِعَةٌ للهِ مُخْلِصَةٌ
تَدْعُو وَمَا خَابَ مَنْ تَدْعُو مِنْ أَمَمِ
3. That He may strengthen you as long as time endures, and that
He may strengthen Egypt through its shepherd over all other nations,
٣. بِأَنْ يُعِزَّكِ مَا دَامَ الزَّمَانُ وَأَنْ
يُعِزَّ مِصْراً بِرَاعِيهَا عَلَى الأُمَمِ
4. I am a grieving woman who has lost her child,
Yet my child is not dead, but imprisoned on false charges,
٤. إِني لَجَارِيَةٌ ثَكْلَى وَمَا وَلَدِي
مَيْتٌ وَلَكِنْ طَرِيحُ السِّجْنِ فِي تُهَمِ
5. So act as Jesus did, and revive the dead to bring back
A mother on the verge of perishing from agony,
٥. فَافْعَلْ كَعِيسَى وَأَحْيِ المَيْتَ تُحْيِ بِهِ
أُمّاً عَلَى وَشْكِ أَنْ تَفْنَى مِنَ الأَلَمِ
6. And save a husband whose weakness has melted his determination,
And their abundant children from nothingness and nonexistence,
٦. وَتُنْجِ زَوْجاً أَذَابَ الضَّعْفُ مُهْجَتَهَا
وَوُلْدُهَا الكُثْرُ مِنْ عُدْمٍ وَمِنْ عَدَمِ
7. By pardoning him, as his whole sentence
Nears completion with nothing left but a word from your mouth.
٧. بِالعَفْوِ عَنْهُ وَكَادَتْ كُل مُدَّتِهِ
تُقْضَى فَمَا ثَمَّ إِلاَّ لَفْظَةٌ بِفَمِ
