الحمدُ للَّهِ الذي نجَّى السمكْ
من الشُّصوص الجائلات والشبكْ
Praise be to God, who saved the fish
from the circling pools and the nets.
علّمه يونسُ من تسبيحِهِ
ما كان أدّاه إلى تسريحه
Jonah taught it, from his hymn of praise,
what had led him to his release.
فهو من الصيَّادِ في أمانِ
ما دمتُ أبغيهِ وفي ضمانِ
So it is safe from the fisherman,
as long as I pursue it, under protection.
إني عليه لعظيم البركهْ
فلْيدْعُ لي ما صاحبته الحركهْ
Indeed, I am a mighty blessing to it;
so let it pray for me while motion keeps it company.
Sol 5.6
