1. The Caliphate has become with goodness overflowing,
And evil averted from its bounds.
١. إِنَّ الخِلافَةَ أَصبَحَت سَرَّاؤُها
مَجلوبَةً وَشرورُها مَصروفَهْ
2. Pardons encompass all sins,
Rewards given, and mercy abounding.
٢. عَفوٌ تَعُمُّ بِهِ الذُّنوبُ وَحُرمَةٌ
تُعطِي الثَّوابَ وَرَأفَةٌ مَعطوفَهْ
3. If it could save and secure our company,
And protect us from each fearsome thing-
٣. لَو كانَ يُنقِذُنا وَيُؤمِن سِربَنا
وَيُجيرُنا مِن شَرِّ كُلِّ مَخوفَهْ
4. None but the station of Caliph succeeding Caliph
Succeeding Caliph succeeding Caliph could such refuge bring!
٤. إِلا مَقامَ خَليفَةٍ لِخَليفَةٍ
لِخَليفَةٍ لِخَليفَةٍ لِخَليفَهْ
