عَليُّ الى أَعلى الجَمال تَعالى

عَليُّ الى أَعلى الجَمال تَعالى

وَاِن رُمتُ وَصفاً جلَّ عَنهُ كَمالا

وَاِن رُمتُ وَصفاً جلَّ عَنهُ كَمالا

ʿAlī rose sublime to beauty’s utmost height.

And if I seek union, he is, in his perfection, exalted far beyond it.

كَأَنَّ ملاحَ الناسِ أَضحوا رَعِيَّةً

كَأَنَّ ملاحَ الناسِ أَضحوا رَعِيَّةً

وَصارَ أَميرَ العالَمينَ جَمالا

وَصارَ أَميرَ العالَمينَ جَمالا

As though the fair among mankind had become his subjects,

and he had become the prince of all creation in beauty.
