1. يا سَمِيًّ الَّذي تَبَهَّلَ يَدعو

    رَبَّهُ مُخلِصاً لَهُ في قُل أوحي

    O namesake of him who fervently supplicated, calling

    Upon his Lord, sincerely devoted to Him, in “Say: It has been revealed.”

  2. وَشَبيهَ الَّذي اِستَقَلَّت بِهِ العي

    رُ عَنِ الجُبِّ خاضِعاً كَالطَليحِ

    And you who resemble him whom the caravan carried

    Away from the well, bowed like one exhausted;

  3. وَمُكَنّىً تَتوقُ نَفسي إِلَيهِ

    بِالرَسولِ الكَريمِ بَعدَ المَسيحِ

    And you, for whom my soul yearns, bearing an honorific byname

    After the noble Messenger who came after the Messiah.

  4. أَفصَحَ اليَومَ ناظِراً مُستَهامٍ

    نَطَقا عَن ضَميرِ قَلبٍ قَريحِ

    Today the two eyes of a love-stricken man spoke eloquently;

    They voiced the innermost thoughts of a wounded heart.
