1. O my eye, weep streaming tears

    for the best of creation, the Chosen One.

  2. Mourn the Messenger—for mourning him is only right—

    when war rages, at the moment of encounter;

  3. for the best man a she-camel ever carried,

    the most God-fearing of creation when piety is the measure;

  4. for a lord—glorious, a mighty chief—

    the best of humankind and the finest of gifts.

  5. His noble lineage stands above all human—

    —kind: from Hashim, that one in whom hope is placed.

  6. Through his bounty we were especially favored;

    he was a lamp for us in the darkness,

  7. a bearer of glad tidings for us, and a warner,

    and a light for us, whose radiance shone.

  8. Then God delivered us through his light

    and by His mercy saved us from the Blaze.
