نَبى الهُدى أَرجو شَفاعتك الَّتي
لَكَ اللَهُ بَعدَ الرُسل أَجلى نَوالَها
O Prophet of guidance, I seek your intercession, whose
grant to you God made manifest after the messengers.
وَفي الهَول جاءَتكَ الخَلائق كُلَها
إِذا ما تَوالى الخَطب قُلت أَنالَها
Amid the terror, all created beings will come to you;
when calamities follow one upon another, you say, “I shall attain it.”
وَقَد جَدَ بي وَجدي فَجئتك قاصِداً
لِتَشكو نَفسي مادَهاها وَهالَها
My ardent longing has grown intense, so I have come to you, intent,
that my soul may lament what has stricken and appalled it.
وَهَأنا راج مِنكَ حسن هِداية
وَأَشفَقت مِن ذَنبي عَسي أَن أَنالَها
And here I am, hoping from you for gracious guidance,
fearful because of my sin—perhaps I may attain it.
Sol 5.6
