هنيئاً لمولانا علوًّا علوته

يحقُّ له فرط الولاء من الناس

Congratulations to our master, exalted his exaltation,

The people's excessive loyalty is his rightful due.

دعاني نداهُ حين حدتُ عن الورى

فلبَّيته عشراً وقلت على راسي

His call summoned me when I wandered from the path,

I answered his call ardently and said: "At your service!"
