أكرمْ بمن يسألُ سُؤَّالَهُ

أن يَسأَلوه قبل أن يُسْأَلُوا

Honor the one who asks with his question

Ask him before you yourselves are asked

وذلكم مِن فَرْطِ إكرامه

يرَى به التساءلَ لا يجملُ

And that is from his excessive honor

He sees questioning as unbecoming

إنَّ ابن سلطان سِوى مُلكِه

لو يُسْألُ الدنيا فلا يَبْخَلُ

Indeed the son of the sultan except his kingdom

If he were asked for the world he would not be stingy

لو رُوحه تسألُ أعطَاكَهَا

فليتق الرحمنَ مَنْ يَسْألُ

If his soul were asked for he would give it

So let the Merciful beware of the one who asks

لا خَابَ في الحسنى له سائِلٌ

لكن يخيبُ العَذْلُ والعُذَّلُ

No seeker of good from him is disappointed

But injustice and hostility cause disappointment

لو كان في عليائهِ آخراً

فإنه للأكرمِ الأولُ

If there were another after his supremacy

He is still the most honorable first

فلا تضاهِيه بمن دُونه

هل يستوى الأعلى أو الأسفلُ

So do not compare him to those below him

Can the highest and lowest be equal?

لهُ عَلَى الأملاكِ فضلٌ كما

فُضِّلَ في العالم المُرْسَلُ

He has merit over the angels as

The Messenger was preferred in the world

هو المصطفى المختارُ مِن هاشم

خير الورَى نبيَّنَا الأفْضَلُ

He is Al-Mustafa the Chosen from Hashim

The best of creation, our superior Prophet
