1. أخُوكَ الذي إن عَثَرْ

    تَ أَنْهَضَ من عَثْرَتِكْ

    Your brother is he who, if you stumble,

    lifts you up from your fall;

  2. وإِنْ ظَهَرَتْ خَلَّةٌ

    له سَدَّ من خلّتِكْ

    and if a need becomes apparent

    to him, he supplies what you lack.

  3. يَزِيْنُكَ في حَضْرَتِكْ

    ويرْعَاكَ في غَيْبَتِكْ

    He adorns you in your presence

    and watches over you in your absence;

  4. شَرِيكُكَ في مِحْنَتِكَ

    وَأُنْسكَ في نِعْمَتِكْ

    your partner in your hardship,

    and your comfort in your prosperity.
