ابنَ إِبراهيمَ طِب إِنّا وَإِن

قد اِذَقناكَ جزاءَ الظالِمين

Son of Abraham, forgive us though we

Have made you taste the oppressors' punishment

لَكِرامٌ إن غَضِبنا رَدَّنا

عن أَذى مِثلكَ طَبعُ الكاظِمين

It is noble if we get angry and yet refrain

From harming the likes of you - that is the forbearers' nature

إنَّ هذا الشَهرَ شهرٌ يَجتَنى

فيه أَمثالُكَ صَفحَ الصافِحين

This month is one where the likes of you

Are forgiven by the forgiving

قَد مَحَونا آيةَ الكفِّ وها

نحنُ نَتلو اليومَ آيَ الراحمين

We have erased the verse of retaliation, so

Today we recite the verse of the merciful

فَاِلزَمِ العُرفَ تَعِش في ظِلِّنا

في عدادِ الكاتِبين المُكرَمين

So stick to custom and you will live under our

Protection, among the honored writers

وَاكتُبِ الخَيرَ وَقُلهُ تُرضِنا

وَاِستَقِم تُرضِ إلهَ العالَمين

And write and speak good, that will please us

And walk straight, that will please the Lord of all worlds
