أَلاَ عُج مِن حَيَازِيمِ المَطِيِّ

عَلَى قَبرِ الإِمَامِ الحَضرَمِيِّ

Behold, how strange are the ruins of the dwellings

Upon the tomb of Imam Al-Hadrami

وَحَيِّ مَنَازِلاً قَد حَلَّ فِيهَا

فَإنَّ سَفَاهَةً أَن لاَ تُحَييِّ

And greet the abodes wherein he once resided

For it is ignorance not to pay your respects

وَدُر فِيهَا فَبِالدَّوَرَانِ فِيهَا

تَسَامَى لِلمُؤمِّل كُل حَيِّ

Circulate around them, for in revolving about them

Each aspiring soul is exalted on high

وَزُرهُ فَإنَّ رَائِرَهُ جَدِيرٌ

بإعطَاءِالعُلُوِّ مِن العَلِيِّ

And visit his grave, for his fragrance is worthy

Of giving exaltation from the Most High

وإصلاَحِ الجَنَانِ وَبُرءِ مَا في

أَدِيمِ الجِسمِ مِن دَاءٍ دَوِيِّ

And the healing of souls, and the curing of all

Afflictions that plague the body from head to toe

وَلاَ عَجَبٌ إِذَا مَا كَانَ ذَاكُم

بِزَورَةِ مَاجِدٍ حَبرٍ تَقِيِّ

It is no wonder that you all find this

In the sanctuary of the venerable erudite sage

وَلَىٍّ عَالِمٍ حَبرٍ شَرِيفٍ

لَهُ اجتَمَعَت كَرَاماتُ الوَلِيِّ

The learned Imam, the noble saint

Who gathered within him the miracles of sainthood

حَبِيبِ الهَاشِمِىِّ وَمُقتَفِيهِ

وَنِعمَ فَتًى حَبِيبُ الهَاشِمِيِّ

Beloved of Al-Hashimi and his emulator

What a splendid fellow, beloved of Al-Hashimi

وَوَارِثُهُ امتِثَالاً وَاجتَنَاباً

وحَامِي دِينَهُ بِالمَشرَفِيِّ

His heir in obedience and avoidance

Protector of his faith with Al-Mashrafi

سَقَى بَلَداً تَضَمَّنَهُ وَلِيٌّ

سُحُوحٌ بِالغَدَاةِ وَبِالعَشِيِّ

Watered a land that contained a saint

Generous morning and eve without cease

وبَارَكَ في سَوَاكِنِهِ بِجِاهِ الن

نَبِيِّ وَجَاهِ أصحَابِ النَّبِيِّ

And blessed its dwellers through the grace of the Prophet

And the companions of that Prophet

عَلَيهِ مِنَ الإِلهِ صَلاَةٌ أذكَى

مِنَ النَّسرَينِ والمِسكِ الذَّكِيِّ

Upon him from Allah prayers more fragrant

Than musk and sweetest perfume
