مَنظومةٌ شَرُفت بمدحِ المُصطفى

وَبِآلهِ أَهلِ المودّةِ وَالصفا

A poem graced with praise of Al-Mustafa

And his family, the people of affection and purity

وَتَضمّنت مِن نَسلهم نَسباً بهِ

عَبدُ السلامِ بن المشيشِ تَكنّفا

It included from his progeny a lineage in which

Abdul Salam ibn Al Mishish was enveloped

تَجلو مَآثِرُهم كروضٍ زاهرٍ

وَشّى مطارفَهُ الربيعُ وفوّفا

Their glories shine like a blooming meadow

In whose edges spring scattered its flowers

أَنشأتَها لِلمُخلِصينَ وسيلةً

لا سيّما الصدرُ الوزيرُ المُصطفى

You created it as a means for the sincere

Especially the chest of the vizier Al-Mustafa

وَلَقَد أَجزتُ له رِوايَتها وأَن

تَعدو تِلاوتها لهُ وردَ الشِّفا

And I have certainly allowed him to transmit it

And to exceed in its recitation as a healing draught

وَبِحُسنِ نيّتهِ سَيبلغُ ما رَجا

في النَشأَتينِ وَيأمن المتخوّفا

And with his good intention he will attain what he hopes

In both realms and be safe from fear

واللّهَ أَسألَ أَن يُديم لَه بها

نَفعاً وظلّاً حيثُ يمّم أو رَفا

And I ask God to perpetuate for him through it

Benefit and shade wherever he turns or settles
