إذا نحنُ بايعنا علياً فحسبُنا

أبو حسَنٍ مما نخافُ من الفِتَن

If we pledged allegiance to Ali, it was enough for us,

Abu Hasan, we have no fear of strife,

وجدناهُ أولى الناسِ بالناس إنَّهُ

أطبُّ قُريشٍ بالكتابِ وبالسُّنَن

We found him to be the best of people for people, he

Is the most knowledgeable of Quraysh in the Book and the Sunnah,

وأنَّ قُريشاً لا تشقُّ غبارَهُ

إذا ما جرى يوماً على الضُّمرِ البُدُن

And that Quraysh cannot raise dust against him

If a day comes when virtues are exposed,

ففيهِ الذي فيهم من الخيرِ كُلِّهِ

وما فيهمُ مثلُ الذي فيهِ من حَسَن

For he possesses all the good that is in them

And there is none among them with his virtues and beauty,

وصيُّ رسولِ اللَه من دُونِ أهلِهِ

وفارِسُهُ قد كانَ في سالفِ الزمن

The successor of Allah's Messenger, apart from his family,

And his knight who was so in times past.
