1. Let my tears flow as they have found an outlet,
When they marched towards the beloved's departure.

2. Leave me alone or whatever is upon them,
If only they had stayed on the sand dune a little.

3. Do you think they have betrayed the longing and passion for him,
As well as the desire, the night journey, and the emaciation?

4. So they turned away from him and left him alone,
With none but weeping as a companion.

5. A lover whom sadness has left frail,
After separation has drawn him as an example.

6. Winds of comfort have blown upon him,
Leaving him as ruins and hills.

7. Whenever he thought his tears would extinguish the fire of love,
The embers of longing ignited and the anguish intensified.

8. My obvious sorrow and hidden passion have shown,
That within my ribs there is an alien disease.

9. Passionate for the youths that pass through the neighborhood,
Enchantingly dragging their tails at night.

10. Whenever I recall him for a short day,
I cry profusely at the meeting.

11. And calls upon the guide whom he hopes to reach,
If he does not respond, he calls the guide.

12. O you who travels the dunes,
Start your journey early in the morning and late at night.

13. Darkness of night hurts the perished,
Walking mile after mile in the desert.

14. And the destiny leans with its shoulder, over here,
Upon the cheek that does not reject the curl.

15. He longs for the people of love in their homes,
While she longs for her rest and sleep.

16. Do not try to reach the homes, until you see
That she longs for her rest and sleep.

17. You have given good advice, so your cup has gained,
So be to the Messenger, a messenger for me.

18. And you have reached your purpose, so may God guide you,
And relieve me of the heavy burden of my longing.

19. Then bid farewell, and let the farewell be the soil of earth glittering,
And repeat the kissing of its soil.

20. And cry for me, for if you had reached him,
My tears would have remained pouring upon him as showers.

21. Then say that I have left in the land of people,
A thin longing and frail passion.

22. It is hoped that he will see your protection, though
Reaching it after estrangement is impossible.

23. So hopefully your abundant grace will call him,
And guide him to the path of meeting.

24. If he could, the intensity of his passion,
Would make him a companion to the winds.

25. Not because of his purpose or consent,
Has distance from the close become a substitute.

26. The only crime is that when longing to travel,
To you both, he sees it as a heavy shackle.

27. And time, whenever he hopes for ease,
In pursuing his aim, appears miserly.

28. And prevents him whenever he requests,
To prolong his wishes.

29. He is over seventy, time has warned him,
Of traveling to the next life, so he has folded his tails.

30. So when his time is up and he does not reach
His wishes, he hopes for intercession from you.

31. You, O intercessor of servants, have truly
Become the guarantor of people's hopes.

32. You have great standing on the Day of Judgment,
Spacious for God, long lasting.

33. The Praised Station, the Basin, the Great Intercession
Follow in the shade of your blessed flag.

34. So we will see you as a water bearer and guide,
If we are lost, and an accepted intercessor.

35. Carrying us all there when you are busy with yourself,
You, whom the messengers of God

36. Foretold the good news to the lands before, generation after generation.
And so did the monks in the deserts and the Jewish scholars,

37. They narrated and conveyed descriptions of him, transmitted.
And glad tidings continued through revelations in sanctuaries,

38. Reciting them sorrowfully while traveling and on the plains.
The devils were blocked from hearing of him,

39. To him they were unable to reach.
Through him God protected the people of His House,

40. Repelled enemies, and made the elephant army return.
And the good news of prophethood came to him in the cave of Hira,

41. With contentment and Gabriel.
He came with the Wise Remembrance and said “Read”,

42. And revealed to him a profound discourse.
It rendered humans and jinn incapable with a chapter of it,

43. So they failed and turned away.
Thus He guided us through him, and you are the Remembrance,

44. A book and a prophet messenger.
Our book and God’s Messenger have sufficed us

45. As a guide and evidence in the religion.
With this and that God has guided us to the truth,

46. So we found the path.
We have preserved it in our hearts, so we have succeeded

47. And recited its verses rhythmically.
We are tasked with it until we meet God as judges,

48. Then when we complete its recitation, the next recitation becomes the first,
Like one who yearns for the homes, whenever he reaches his destination,

49. He repeats the journey.
Therefore send blessings upon the Messenger,

50. To whom God revealed His Book as a revelation.
Blessings from his Lord and fragrant greetings

51. As long as the doves coo.
