1. يا إِمامَ الهُدى عَلَوْتَ عَن الجودِ

    بمالٍ منْ فِضَّةٍ أو نُضارِ

    O imam of guidance, you have risen above generosity

    In wealth of silver or pure gold.

  2. فَوهَبْتَ الأعْمارَ والأمْنَ والبُلْدانَ

    كُلاً في ساعةٍ منْ نَهارِ

    For you bestowed lives, safety, and lands,

    All within a single hour of daylight.

  3. فَبماذا يُثْنى عليكَ وقد جاوزتَ

    فضْلَ البِحارِ والأمْطارِ

    How, then, can you be praised, when you have surpassed

    The bounty of the seas and rains?

  4. إنَّما أنتَ مُعْجِزٌ مُستمرٌّ

    خارِقٌ للعقولِ والأفْكارِ

    You are nothing but an enduring marvel,

    Defying reason and thought.

  5. جمعتْ نفسُكَ الشَّريفَةُ بالجودِ

    وبالبأسِ بينَ ماءٍ ونارِ

    Your noble soul has united, through generosity

    And through valor, water and fire.
