1. O son of Hashim, you have inherited their glory,
Which no breach can undo, nor passage of time.
١. يا اِبنَ الهاشِمينَ طُرّاً حُزتَ مَجدَهُما
وَما تَخَوَّنهُ نَقَضٌ وَإِمرارُ
2. Do not let my enemies gloat over me, for they are
But onlookers and eavesdroppers between you and me.
٢. لا تُشمِتَنَّ بي الأَعداءَ إِنَّهُم
بَيني وَبَينَكَ سُمّاعٌ وَنُظّارُ
3. And though they return my gratitude with their rage,
My thanks are known to God openly and secretly.
٣. وَإِنَّ شُكرِيَ إِن رُدّوا بِغَيظِهِمُ
في ذِمَّةِ اللَهِ إِعلانٌ وَإِسرارُ
4. So repeat your blessed favors to me abundantly,
For you are constantly disposed to kindness.
٤. فَاِكرُر بِنائِلِكَ المَحمودِ مِن سَعَةٍ
عَلَيَّ إِنَّكَ بِالمَعروفِ كَرّارُ
