1. Seek intercession at the Sa'idi's grave
To God, grief will scatter from you
١. بِقَبْرِ الصَّعِيدِيِّ فَاسْتَشْفِعَنْ
إِلَى اللهِ يَنْفَضُّ عَنْكَ الْحَزَنْ
2. And take refuge in His protection, as His protection
Is safety for one tried by afflictions
٢. وَلُذْ بِحِمَاهُ فِإِنَّ حِمَاهُ
أَمَانٌ لِمَنْ قَدْ بَرَتْهُ الْمِحَنْ
3. Do not avoid his purpose for an hour
As his call dispels sorrow
٣. وَلاَ تَعْدُ عَنْ قَصْدِهِ سَاعَةً
فَإِنَّ نَدَاهُ مُبِيدُ الشَّجَنْ
4. So many worries became resolute
The knots of their affair the bamboo has split
٤. فَكَمْ مِنْ هُمُومٍ غَدَا فَاصِماً
عُرَى خَطْبِهَا نَدَّ مِنْهَا الْوَسَنْ
5. My wish, I have come seeking
The soft flowing sea of your palm's breadth
٥. أَمَوْلاَيَ قَدْ جِئْتُ مُنْتَجِعاً
نَدَى بَحْرِ كَفِّكَ طَلْقَ الرَّسَنْ
6. And most deserving of one who frequented your dwelling
To gain his wish and not be disappointed
٦. وَأَجْدِرْ بِمَنْ أَمَّ مَثْوَاكَ أَنْ
يَنَالَ مُنَاهُ وَلَمْ يُغْتَبَنْ
7. Hasten my death and settle my concerns
For the arrows of time have pierced it
٧. فَعَجِّلْ مُنَايَ وَسَكِّنْ حَشَايَ
فَقَدْ قَرْطَسَتْهُ سِهَامُ الزَّمَنْ
8. And be my refuge from the flooding seas
For my illness is long and my disease rotten
٨. وُكُنْ لِي مُجِيراً مِنَ الْغَمَرَاتِ
فَسُقْمِي طَوِيلٌ وَدَائِي عَفَنْ
9. The ship of my poverty, the sea of my restraint
Dwelt, and the breeze of my patience calmed
٩. وَفُلْكُ افْتِقَارِي لِبَحْرِ اعْتِبَارِي
ثَوَى وَنَسِيمُ اصْطِبَارِي سَكَنْ
10. I say, and its length has weakened me
Shall I not scent it with a good breeze?
١٠. أَقُولُ وَقَدْ هَالَنِي مُكْثُهُ
أَلاَ أَزْجِهِ بِنَسِيمٍ حَسَنْ
11. With the best of creations, the most virtuous whom
God has graced with the best practices
١١. بِخَيْرِ الْخَلاَئِقِ أَفْضَلِ مَنْ
حَبَاهُ الإِلَهُ بِأَهْدَى سَنَنْ
12. Muhammad, the Chosen One, the Exemplar
The Messenger of God, foremost in ways
١٢. مُحَمَّدٍ الْمُصْطَفَى الْمُقْتَفَى
رَسُولِ الإِلَهِ سَنِيِّ السُّنَنْ
13. As long as care persisted
Prayer from God, Granter of Favors
١٣. عَلَى رَسْمِهِ مَا هَمَتْ دِيمَةٌ
صَلاَةٌ مِنَ اللهِ مُولِي الْمِنَنْ
14. And his family, and companions whenever
Doves have cooed and an ostrich of the upland cried
١٤. وَآلِهِ وَالصَّحْبِ مَا صَدَحَتْ
حَمَامٌ وَمَا ظَبْيُ رِيمٍ شَدَنْ
