أثقلت ظهري الخطايا ومالي

أثقلت ظهري الخطايا ومالي

حجة في القيام تصلح حالي

حجة في القيام تصلح حالي

Sins have weighed down my back, and I have no

My back is burdened with sins and I have nothing,

plea at the Resurrection to set my state aright,

No excuse to fix my state when standing,

غير مدح الرسول خير البرايا

غير مدح الرسول خير البرايا

وانتسابي له بحب الآل

وانتسابي له بحب الآل

save praise of the Messenger, the best of creation,

Except praising the Messenger, best of creations,

and my affiliation with him through love of his family.

And my affiliation to him through love of his family.
