1. O rider of the coach, when you pass the deserted camp,
Remember Al-Aamiriyah in song,

2. And greet the dwellers of the quarter and convey my regards,
Saying I left them lovesick and distressed,

3. If after my request they allow me to meet them,
What a delightful life! And O heart, be content!

4. From them my soul bought a glance,
So my heart by love's decree they took hostage.

5. A human whose image my eyes portray,
And though they are absent, my heart feels their presence.

6. O driver of the groans, hurry your pace
Enchanted, hail those who dwell in it,

7. Sing of my beloved and reminisce of him,
And try when you return to convey the tune,

8. Stop at the solitary hill east of Dharij,
And if you come to Sulayy take the right route.

9. And if the dwellers of the quarter appear from Mount Tayyibah
Unleash then the time of longing and harness the groan.

10. I love the lightning’s glow from the direction of Bariq
And recognize the morning breeze as it blows gently.

11. And I long for the features of its dwellers
And the fragrant basil that grows in it.

12. And if I did not shed my tears down its slope
May the Merciful never make me laugh after it again!

13. May Allah water your campsite plentifully
And scent the plain and valley from its outskirts,

14. For I have a moon in that horizon that did ascend
Surpassing all moons in its splendid light,

15. Of beautiful features, of glowing complexion, as white as a full moon,
Dazzling smile, most black-eyed and slender.

16. He is Mustafa from the honorable Hashimite clan
What bounty were his fathers! And what glory are his sons!

17. The prophet of guidance who came to people as a mercy
To the wretched he brings gain, and to the fearful safety.

18. He is the greatest of creation in rank and most generous
Sweetest of speech and most perfect of beauty.

19. From Al-Aqsa Mosque to the Throne he ascended
Until he was but two bow lengths or nearer,

20. And in the presence of proximity and intimacy with his Lord,
He was granted favor and life of goodness.

21. That vision of him never wavered nor transgressed,
And he attained of the signs that which confused the mind.

22. In the decisive revelation his praise is most apt,
And He praised him in the Book as was his due.

23. His companions in every field of excellence
Whose speech makes time run out but itself does not expire.

24. Dark-complexioned, formidable in war against the polished swords,
Tall, long-armed, grappling opponents in combat.

25. When drowsiness covers the people, they are seen
Awake, neither slumbering nor napping,

26. When they shine in war they become piercing swords,
When they thunder, lions, when they rain, hailstones.

27. They charge furiously with penetrating glances,
Well-honed blades that have not adopted sheaths.

28. On the supple bending spear shaft their swords sing,
Making music to the rhythm as they unsheathe the stab.

29. With them the night battle is as surging seas,
And if they make peace, humans, and if they war, jinn.

30. They sold themselves to the rule of jihad,
Finding therein no loss or cheating.

31. The Messenger of Allah was their pillar,
By whom they avoid calamity - most honored pillar.

32. Congratulations to them for the excellence of their beginning,
While we by excellent following indeed succeeded.

33. So O refuge, when I find no refuge for myself,
And sturdy fortress where I have made no fortress,

34. Sins have heavily burdened my back with their weight,
While few are the good deeds I forwarded and their weight light.

35. Perhaps a glance of yours will cure me
And through you my soul will attain the sublime goal.

36. And I will be saved from the day of severe punishment
When the towering camels, bowed low, are led to pasture.

37. And my record will be given in my right hand while I bend down
Having attained my fortune through you, not through my right hand.

38. For in God I am confident of favorable thoughts,
And none who thought good of God was ever disappointed.

39. So O Lord, by the one sent from Hashim and Adnan’s line
Make my dwelling place tomorrow a Paradise.

40. And bestow blessings on the Chosen One, and on his family perpetually,
In your meadow which is lush and green.

41. And double my prayers with peace and pleasure
Upon his companions and followers, and be pleased with them.
