أَمُحَمَّدٌ وَالجودُ فيكَ سَجِيَّةٌ

يَهنيكَ طَيِّبُ ذِكرِها يَهنيكا

O Muhammad, generosity is your nature,

Its good mention brings you joy,

أَدعوكَ دِعوَةَ مَن تَيَقَّنَ أَنَّهُ

سَيَنالُ مايَرجوهُ إِذ يَدعوكا

I call upon you, the call of one certain,

That he will attain what he hopes, when he calls upon you,

عَوَّدتَني البِرَّ الجَزيلَ وَلَم تَزَل

أَبَداً تُعَوِّدُهُ الَّذي يَرجوكا

You have accustomed me to abundant kindness,

And you never cease to accustom one who hopes in you,

فَلِذاكَ لَو فَتَّشتَ قَلبي لَم تَجِد

لَكَ في الوَلاءِ المَحضِ فيهِ شَريكا

Therefore if you examined my heart, you would not find,

For you in sincere loyalty, a partner,

هَذا حَديثي عَن ضَميرٍ صادِقٍ

وَاِسأَل ضَميرَكَ إِنَّهُ يُنبيكا

This is my talk, from a truthful conscience,

And ask your conscience, it will inform you,

لِم لايُرَجّى مِنكَ إِدراكُ المُنى

وَأَبوكَ في يَومِ الفَخارِ أَبوكا

Why is it not hoped from you, attainment of wishes?

And your father, on the day of pride, is your father,

وَإِذا تَحَدَّثَ عَن نَداكَ مُحَدِّثٌ

فَالبَحرُ عَبدُكَ لا أَقولُ أَخوكا

And if a speaker talks of your benevolence,

The sea is your servant, I do not say, your brother,

جاءَت مُحَرِّكَةً لِهِمَّتِكَ الَّتي

ماخِلتُها مُحتاجَةً تَحريكا

It came stimulating your resolve,

Which I have never known to be in need of stimulating,

فَلَئِن مَنَنتَ بِما وَعَدتَ تَكَرُّماً

فَلِمِثلِ ذَلِكَ لَم أَزَل أَرجوكا

So if you bestow what you have promised, generous,

For the like of that, I have not ceased to hope in you,

وَلَئِن نَسيتَ وَما إِخالُكَ ناسِياً

فَسِواكَ مَن يَنسى لَهُ مَملوكا

And if you forget, and how could you forget intentionally,

Other than you, who forgets one he owns?
