1. سؤال سِوى مَليك الأَمر شرك

    فَلَيسَ لِغَير رَبّ العَرش ملكُ

    Asking anyone but the Sovereign of affairs is associating partners with God;

    for none but the Lord of the Throne has dominion.

  2. وَما لي وَالوَرى لِلّه ملكُ

    أَبثّ لَدَيكُم حزني وَأَشكو

    And why should I—when all creation belongs to God—

    pour out my sorrow before you and complain

  3. إِلَيكُم يا رِجال الغَيب عسري

    نعم أنتم وَسيلة من توسّل

    to you, O men of the unseen, of my hardship?

    Yes, you are the means for whoever seeks intercession

  4. بِكُم يا خَير أُمّة خَير مُرسل

    ألوذُ بِكُم وَلي بِاللَه مَأمل

    through you, O best community of the best Messenger.

    I seek refuge with you, while my hope rests in God.

  5. ومِنكُم أرتَجي الإِسعاف ثمّ ال

    مَعونَةَ وَالنَوال وَجبر كسري

    And from you I hope for aid, then the

    assistance, bounty, and mending of my brokenness.
