1. موْلايَ يا أعْلى الوَرى منزِلَهْ

    عبْدُكَ يرجُو نعْمةً منكَ لَهْ

    My lord, O highest of mankind in station,

    Your servant hopes to receive a favor from you,

  2. مثْلَ رَفيقَيْهِ وقد بُلّغا

    ما أسْعَفَ القصْدَ وما كمّلَهْ

    Like his two companions, who have both been granted

    What served their purpose and what brought it to fulfillment.

  3. كِلاهُما فازَ بما شاءَهُ

    ولم ينَلْ عبدُك ما أمّلَهْ

    Both of them gained what they wished for,

    While your servant did not obtain what he hoped for.

  4. وإنّ موْلايَ الإمامَ الرّضا

    يحْكُمُ في ذلكَ بالمَعْدِلَهْ

    And indeed my lord, the esteemed imam,

    Judges that matter with justice.

  5. ورِفْدُ موْلايَ يعُمُّ الوَرى

    سحائِبُ الجودِ بهِ مُرْسَلَهْ

    And my lord's bounty embraces all mankind;

    Through him the clouds of generosity are sent forth.

  6. فلا تُخيّبْ راجياً لمْ يزَلْ

    في كُلّ حال وارِداً مَنْهَلَهْ

    So do not disappoint a hopeful man who has never ceased

    Coming to his watering place in every circumstance.

  7. وقد توسّلْت بهادِي الوَرى

    ومُحْكَمِ الذّكْرِ ومَن أنْزَلَهْ

    And I have made my appeal through the guide of mankind,

    And the unambiguous text of the Reminder, and Him who sent it down.

  8. لازِلْتَ تُبْدي نصْرَ دينِ الهُدى

    في الحالِ والأزمِنةِ المُقْبِلَهْ

    May you never cease to show support for the faith of guidance,

    Now and in the times to come.
