1. O Commander of the Faithful, I sacrifice my soul for you
You are a wonder and marvel to behold

2. Those who followed you were fortunate and succeeded
While those who opposed you were wretched and failed

3. Had people known who you truly are
They would prostrate before you and never disobey

4. By God's blessing, if the veil were lifted
And God's face revealed from behind the veil

5. You were hidden from sight though you are the sun
Soaring above any clouds that would shade her

6. When dawn breaks clearly, none can blame the morn
If a blind man does not behold the light of day

7. For a mystery did the Prophet, father of dust, name you
Muhammad the chosen one, so pure and blessed

8. Thus all who come from dust can claim relation
For in you lies their cause to stake such a claim

9. Without you no sky would have been created
Without you no dust would have been shaped

10. On you and your adherence rests judgment day
To punish or reward however it may

11. Through you the Torah of Moses spoke clear
The Bible of Jesus and the Holy Book as well

12. A wonder it is that any people opposed you
Or heeded the call of tribes who went astray

13. Turning from the path of truth intentionally
Straying from you, or was guidance kept at bay?

14. Could they doubt what was never dubious?
Can there be doubt when truth has made its way?

15. After Ghadir Khumm, who deserved the caliphate?
Who could claim any portion or share?

16. Did not God make you their Master, and so
All necks before you bowed, despite their glare

17. No Hashimite aspired to it nevertheless
Though of finest stock and most prudent minds

18. Be it Banu Taym or 'Adi, they are the same
Present or absent, their nature binds

19. If out of misery they reject your right
The wretched shall face punishment of their crimes

20. How foolish are those who bite your noble flesh
As dogs would bark and nip at the shining moon!
