بَرئتُ مِن الأَرجاسِ رهطِ اميةٍ
لما صحَّ عِندي من قَديم عدائِهِم
I disavow the sinful people, the Umayyad clan,
Now that their ancient enmity is clear to me.
وَلَعنِهِمُ خَير الوَصيينَ جهرةً
لِكُفرِهِم المَعدودِ في شَرٍّ دائِهم
And curse openly their enemy, the best trustee,
For their abundant mischief and chronic malice.
وَقَتلُهُم الساداتِ من آلِ هاشِمٍ
وَسَبيهِمُ عن جُرأةٍ لِنِسائِهِم
And the killing of their masters from the Hashimite family,
And their humiliation of the women without any shyness.
وَذَبحِهِم خيرَ الرِجالِ ارومةً
حسينَ العلي بِالكُرب في كَربَلائهم
And the slaughter of the best of men, the Pinnacle,
Hussein the Exalted, with anguish in Karbala by their hands.
وَتَشتيتهِم شملَ النَبِيِّ محمدٍ
لما وَرَثوا من بَغضِهِ في فَنائِهِم
And the dispersion of the followers of Prophet Muhammad,
When they inherited his hatred at the time of his death.
وَما غضبت الّا لأَصنامِها الَّتي
أُذِلَّت وَهم أَنصارُها لشقائِهِم
And I was not angry except for their idols
That were humiliated while they were its supporters to their misery.
فَيا رب جَنِّبني المَكارِه واعفُ عن
ذُنوبي لما أَخلَصتُهُ من ولائهِم
So my Lord, spare me the hateful things and forgive
My sins when I sincerified my loyalty to them.
وَيا ربّ أَعدائي كَثيرٌ فَرَدّهُم
بغيظهِمُ لا يَظفَروا بِاِبتِغائِهِم
And my Lord, my enemies are many so turn them back
In their fury, unsuccessful in their pursuit.
وَيا رَبّ مَن كانَ النَبِيُّ وَأَهلُهُ
وَسائِلَهُ لم يَخشَ من غَلوائِهِم
And my Lord, whoever the Prophet and his family were
Interceding for, will not fear from their tyranny.
حسينٌ تَوَسَّل لي إِلى اللَهِ اِنَّني
بُليتُ بِهِم فَاِدفَع عَظيمَ بَلائِهِم
Hussein interceded for me to God, and so I
Was tested by them, so relieve me from their great affliction.
فَكَم قَد دَعوني رافضيّاً لحبِّكُم
فَلَم يَثنني عَنكُم طَويلُ عدائِهم
How often they called me a Rafidhi for loving you,
But their long enmity did not dissuade me from you.
