قد أطلتم في العذلِ والتنقيدِ
بِهوى السيّدِ الإمامِ السّديدِ
You have prolonged the blame and criticism
Out of love for the just Imam, the upright master
يوم قامَ النبيُّ في ظلّ دَوْحٍ
والورى في وديقةٍ صَيخودِ
The day when the Prophet stood in the shade of Dhu-l Hulayfa
While creation slumbered in the cradle of carelessness
رافعاً كفّه بيُمنى يديه
بايحاً باسمه بصوتٍ مديدِ
Raising his hand with his right hand
Proclaiming loudly his name with an extended voice
أيّها المسلمون هذا خَليلي
ووَزيري ووارثي وعقيدي
"O you who have faith! This is my brother
My minister, my heir, and my confidant
وابنُ عمّي إلاّ فمن كنت مولا
هُ فهذا مَولاه فارعَوا عُهودي
And the son of my uncle, so whoever I am his master
This is his master, so be true to my covenant"
وعليٌّ منٍّي بمنزلِ هارونَ
بنِ عمرانَ من أخيهِ الوَدودِ
And Ali is to me in the position of Aaron
The son of Imran to his brother full of love
