Ask the Master of dominion, for He commands and forbids.

Ask the King who owns all, for He is the one who commands and forbids

And fear no aggressor, for judgment belongs to God.

And fear no enemy, for judgement belongs to Allah

هُوَ الَّذِي يَنْعشُ الْمَظلومَ إِنْ عَلِقَتْ

هُوَ الَّذِي يَنْعشُ الْمَظلومَ إِنْ عَلِقَتْ

بِهِ الرَّزَايَا وَيَجْزِي كُلَّ تَيَّاهِ

It is He who revives the oppressed if they are beset

He who gives life to the oppressed, though laden with sin

By calamities, and requites every arrogant man.

And repays all wrongdoing

فَاسْجُدْ لَهُ وَاقْتَرِبْ تَبْلُغْ بِطَاعَتِهِ

فَاسْجُدْ لَهُ وَاقْتَرِبْ تَبْلُغْ بِطَاعَتِهِ

مَا شِئْتَ فِي الدَّهْرِ مِنْ عِزٍّ وَمِنْ جَاهِ

فَاحْلُلْ وَثَاقِي وَأَلْحِقْنِي بِأَشْبَاهِي

O Lord, my yearning for my homeland has lasted long;

O Lord, my yearning for my homeland has grown long

So loosen my bonds and reunite me with my fellows.

So unbind my shackles and reunite me with my own

وَامْنُنْ عَلَيَّ بِفَضْلٍ مِنْكَ يَعْصِمُنِي

وَامْنُنْ عَلَيَّ بِفَضْلٍ مِنْكَ يَعْصِمُنِي

مِنْ كُلِّ سُوءٍ فَإِنِّي عَاجِزُ وَاهِي

مِنْ كُلِّ سُوءٍ فَإِنِّي عَاجِزُ وَاهِي

And bestow upon me grace from You that protects me

And bless me through Your grace with that which will protect me

From every evil, for I am helpless and frail.

From all evil, for I am frail and weak

هذَا دُعَائِي وَحَسْبِي أَنْتَ مِنْ حَكَمٍ

هذَا دُعَائِي وَحَسْبِي أَنْتَ مِنْ حَكَمٍ

يَعْنُو لَهُ كلُّ شَاهٍ أَوْ شَهِنْشَاهِ

يَعْنُو لَهُ كلُّ شَاهٍ أَوْ شَهِنْشَاهِ

This is my prayer, and You suffice me as a judge

This is my prayer, and You suffice me against any ruler

To whom every shah or shahanshah submits.

Be they shah or shahanshah
