فَمَوْتُ أَبِي يَا رَبِّ أحْرَقَ فَجْعُهَا

فُؤَادِي وَأَبْدَى مَا أُكِنُّ مِنَ الْوَجْدِ

My father's death, O Lord, consumed her heart with grief,

O Lord, the tragic affliction of my father's death has burned

And revealed the sorrow I harbor within.

My heart, and laid bare the deep sorrow I concealed.

فَكُنْ سَيِّدِي عَوْناً عَلَى مَا أَتَتْ بِهِ

مُصِيبَتُهُ تِلْكَ التِي أوْهَنَتْ عَضْدِي

So be my aide, my Master, against the affliction,

So be my aid, O Master, against the burden brought by

That weakened me, which his death brought about.

This calamity of his loss, which has sapped my strength.

وَعَامِلْهُ بِالغُفْرَانِ وَالصَّفْحِ وَالرِّضَى

وَلاَ تُحْرِمَنْهُ اللهُ مِنْ جَنَّةِ الْخُلْدِ

Treat him with forgiveness, pardon, and pleasure,

And treat him with forgiveness, pardon, and Your divine pleasure,

And deprive him not, O God, of the Garden of Eternity.

And do not deprive him, O Allah, of the Garden of Eternity.

وَأَجْزِلْ قِرَاهُ إِنَّ عَبْدَكَ جَائِعٌ

لِفَضْلِكَ يَا مَنْ لاَ يَضِنُّ عَلَى الْعَبْدِ

Bestow upon him abundant favor, your servant is famished,

And grant him a bountiful reception, for Your servant hungers

For your grace, O He who is not miserly towards the slave.

For Your grace, O You who never withhold from a servant.

بِجَاهِ إِمَامِ الْمُرْسَلِينَ مُحَمَّدٍ

عَلَيْهِ صَلاَةٌ مِنْكَ فَاقِدَةُ الْحَدِّ

By the status of the Imam of the Messengers, Muhammad,

By the honored rank of Muhammad, the leader of the messengers,

Upon him a never-ending blessing from You.

Upon whom be blessings from You that know no bounds.

وَسَلِّمْ عََلَى الآلِ الكِرامِ وَصَحْبِهِ

غُيوثِ النَّدى بَانِي ذُرَى المَجْدِ بِالجِدِّ

And send your peace upon his noble family and companions,

And send peace upon his noble family and his companions,

The helpers of mankind, who built glory through strife.

Those rains of generosity, who built the peaks of glory with earnest endeavor.
