1. في بحر ملكك يا ربّ الوجود جرت

    سفينتي وبريح الحفظ مسراها

    In the sea of Your dominion, O Lord of existence, sailed

    my ship, her passage borne on the wind of protection.

  2. فيا حفيظاً عليها أنت مالكها

    فاحفظ بلطفك مجراها ومرساها

    So, O Guardian over her, You are her master;

    so guard, with Your gentle care, her course and her anchorage.

  3. والحَظْ فلحظك أرخنا تأملها

    واجعل ببحرك بسم الله مجراها

    And look upon her, for we have dated Your gaze—ponder it.

    And let her course upon Your sea be in the name of God.
