عجيبٌ أنك العذراء حبلى

برب قد تعالى في العجائب

How strange that you, a virgin, became pregnant

With a Lord exalted in wonders

ولدتيه وربيتيه طفلاً

فيرضع ثديك والثدي كاعب

You gave birth to Him and raised Him as a child

He suckles at your breast though a suckling babe

رددت كلما سلبته حوّاً

بمولودٍ شريفٍ في المناقب

Whenever He took milk, you gave it gladly

With a noble newborn of high moral traits

فتحت رتاج دار الخلد حقّاً

ليدخله أثيمٌ جاء تائب

You truly opened the gate of eternal life

So that even a sinner repenting may enter

فإنك باب مولانا تعالى

وإنك خدره وضياه ثاقب

For you are the gate of our Exalted Lord

You are His wall and His shining lamp

ألا سروا بمريم مذ حبتكم

حياةً ما لمشرقها مغارب

Rejoice in Mary since she loved you all

A life whose dawn has no sunset
