1. So take the Zakat, do not fear
And with it mend the rift of yore
١. فَخُذِ الزَّكَاةَ وَلاَ تَخَفْ
وَاجْبُرْ بِهَا صَدْعَ السَّلَفْ
2. With it patch the breach of debt
And find the causes of decay
٢. وَارْقَعْ بِهَا خَرْقَ الدُّيُو
نِ وَجُدَّ أَسْبَابَ التَّلَفْ
3. With it unbind the knot of grief
With it restrain wild sorrow's tide
٣. وَاحْلُلْ بِهَا عَقْدَ الأَسَى
وَافْلُلْ بِهَا حَدَّ الأَسَفْ
4. With it remove the shackles of desire
With it cool the heat of sighs
٤. وَانْقَعْ بِهَا غًلَلَ الْجَوَى
وَابْرُدْ بِهَا حَرَّ اللَّهَفْ
5. And for the laws of the Wise One save
For that is the badge of honor
٥. وَانْقَذْ لِأَحْكَامِ الْحَكِي
مِ فَذَاكَ عُنْوَانُ الشَّرَفْ
6. And seek the heights of acceptance
For to that, lofty chambers lead
٦. وَتَبَوَّأَنْ عُرْفَ الرِّضَى
فَلَقَدْ سَمَتْ نِلْكَ الْغُرَفْ
