دَعَا الرَّحمَنَ بِشرٌ فَاستَجَابَا

لِدَعوَتِهِ فأَسقَانَا السَّحَابَا

Bishr called upon the Merciful, so He answered his prayer,

Sending us clouds that rained down water.

وَكَان دُعَاءُ بِشرٍ صَوبَ غَيثٍ

يُعَاشُ بِهِ وَيُحييِى مَا أصَابَا

Bishr's prayer for rain was right on target,

Reviving and sustaining all that it saturated.

أَغَرُّ بِوَجهِهِ يُسقَى وَيُحيَا

وَنَستَجلِى بِغُرَّتِهِ الضَّبابَا

With his radiant face being watered, he lives again,

And with his shining light, the fog is lifted.
