تمنّيتُ والإنسانُ يُولع بالمنى

بلوغاً إلى المبعوث في خير أمة

I wished, as people desire wishes,

To reach the one sent among the best nation

تمسّكت في أمري بذمّة حبَّه

وذمةُ خير الخلقِ أكرم ذمّة

I held firm in my matter to his covenant of love

And the covenant of the best of creation is the most noble covenant

تملّكني في حبّه أن حبِّه

أمانٌ لروحي في المعادِ ورمَّة

His love has possessed me, for his love

Is security for my soul in the return and rest

تمتعتُ في الدنيا بنعمى مديحه

فكمْ أزمة قد فرجتها وأسمة

I enjoyed in this life the blessing of praising him

So problems were solved and sorrows assuaged

تماديتُ في ذاكَ المدى بنجائب

رميتُ إليها فضلَ تلك الأزمة

I continued excessively in that scope with disasters

I cast toward it the excellence of those crises

تمائمُ أشعاري مدائحه التي

صحائفها يدفعن كلَّ ملمة

The talismans of my poetry are his praises

Whose pages drive away every distress

تمامُ مباني المعلوات محمد

به كملت تلك المعاليوتمّت

The perfection of the edifices of glory is Muhammad

By him those glories were completed and perfected

تمكَّن فيه المجد أيَّ تمكن

فخصت أياديه الكرام وعمت

In him glory took such possession

As honored hands were singled out and spread

تمهّد بالوحي المنزّل أمرُه

وبالسيف إن آذن عن الوحي صمَّت

His matter was facilitated by the revelation sent down

And by the sword, if silence from revelation nodded

تمَّلأ من فضلِ وطيب خلائق

ففاحتْ بريّاه البلادُ ونمّت

He was filled with bounty and good character

So that his goodness perfumed the lands and grew
