أَيَارَبِّ أَذَا الْعِزَّهْ

أَمَنْ يَسْقِي الْوَرَى عِزَّهْ

O Lord, whence comes strength?

O Lord, Possessor of Might!

Who waters the flowers with strength?

O He who pours out might upon creation,

قَضَى عَبْدُكَ مِنْ وَجْدٍ

وَقَدْ أَوْهَى الْهَوَى عِزَّهْ

Your servant has spent himself in passion

Your servant has perished from passionate longing,

And passion itself is spent.

And love has entirely weakened his endurance,

وَأَضْنَاهُ الذِي بَزَّهُ

مِنَ السُّلْوَانِ إِذْ عَزَّهْ

That which exalted him

And he is exhausted by that which stripped him

From the heights of glory when he was exalted,

Of solace, when it utterly overpowered him,

وَرُمْحُ الْغَمِّ قَدْ رَزَّهْ

فَأَرْدَى قَلْبَهُ رَزَّهْ

And the spear of sorrow has wounded him,

And the spear of sorrow has pierced him,

So it cast down his heart with wounds.

And its piercing has destroyed his heart.

فَسَدِّدْهُ وَأَيِّدْهُ

وَثَبِّتْهُ كَمَا الرَّزَّهْ

So guide him and aid him,

So direct him and support him,

And make him firm as the prominent height.

And make him steadfast like a fixed peg,

وَأَطْعِمْ قَلْبَهُ الْعَرْثَا

نَ بُرَّ الْبِرِّ أَوْ رُزَّهْ

And feed his heart with righteousness,

And feed his famished heart

Whether it be of goodness or firmness.

With the wheat of righteousness, or its rice.

وَقَدْ نَادَاكَ ذُو ذُلٍّ

أَجِبْ يَا رَبَّنَا رِزَّهْ

He who is lowly called upon You—

And one of utter lowliness has called upon You,

Respond, O our Lord, to his support.

Answer, O our Lord, his faint supplication.

وَأَنْقِذْهُ مِنَ الشِّرْكِ

إِذَا الشَّرُّ انْتَضَى لَخْزَهْ

And save him from polytheism

And save him from polytheism,

When evil unveils its disgrace.

When evil unsheathes its piercing stab.

وَأَبْدَى فَقْرُهُ عَجْزَهْ

وَأَغْرَى بِالْعَنَا لَحْزَهْ

And his poverty reveals his incapacity,

And his poverty has revealed his helplessness,

And he inclines with supplication for help.

And his dire straits have lured him into hardship.

وَيَسِّرْهُ إِلَى الْيُسْرَى

وَكُنْ مِنْ ضِدِّهَا حِرْزَهْ

And make him incline to ease,

And ease him toward the path of ultimate ease,

And be his protection against its opposite.

And be his sanctuary from its opposite.

وَكُنْ تَعْويذَهُ مِنْ كُ

لِّ مَا يَخْشَاهُ أَوْ حِرْزَهْ

And be his charm against everything

And be his protective amulet from

He fears or needs protection from.

Everything he fears, or be his refuge.

وَعَامِلهُ بِتَوْفِيقٍِ

إِلَى مَا يَقْتَضِي حَْرزَهْ

And treat him with enabling guidance

And treat him with Your divine guidance

To what fulfills his needs.

Toward that which ensures his preservation.

وَأَمِّنْهُ مِنَ اللَّذْ يَقْ

تَضِي عَنْ هَدْيِكُمْ بَهْزَهْ

And grant him safety from desires

And grant him safety from that which

That would lead him away from Your guidance.

Necessitates pushing him away from Your guidance,

وَمِمَّا يَقْتَضِي نَحْزَهْ

وَمِمَّا يَقْتَضِي نَهْزَهْ

And from what entails his rejection,

And from that which brings about striking his chest,

And from what entails his withdrawal.

And from that which brings about his forceful rebuff.

وَسَلِّمْنِي فِي ذِهْنِ

يَ مِمَّا يَقْتَضِي أَزَّهْ

And deliver me in my mind

And keep me sound and safe within

From what entails my disdain.

My mind, from that which triggers its agitation,

وَمِنْ إِبْلِيسَ ذِي التَّدْلِي

سِ لاَ تُغْرِي بِنَا أَزَّهْ

And from Iblis the deluder—

And from Iblis, the master of

Do not let him tempt us to our ruin.

Deception—do not unleash his incitement upon us!

وَمِمَّا يَقْطِفُ الذَّنْبَ ال

لَذِي يُصْلِي الْفَتَى رِجْزَهْ

And from what plucks the fruit of sins

And from that which harvests the sin

That clothe the youth with vileness.

That makes the youth burn in its torment,

وَمِمَّا يَجْتَنِي الْعَيْبَ ال

لَذِي يُكْسِي الْحََشَا رِجْزَهْ

And from what gathers the defects

And from that which reaps the fault

That cover the profligate with vileness.

That clothes the inner soul with its filth.

وَمَلِّكْنِي مَطَا الرُّشْدِ

لِأُضْحِي مَاسِكاً غَرْزَهْ

And make me possess the bridle of righteousness

And grant me mastery over the mount of guidance,

That I may remain grasping its belt.

So that I may become one firmly holding its stirrup,

وَأَمِّنْنِي أَذَا التَّأْمِي

نِ نَخْسَ الْغَيِّ أَوْ غَرْزَهْ

And grant me refuge from the striking of error

And grant me safety, O Grantor of

Or its stabbing or piercing.

Safety, from the spurring of deviation or its pricking,

وَضَرْبَ الْهَمِّ أَوْ وَخْزَهْ

وَطَعْنَ الْغَمِّ أَوْ رَكْزَهْ

And the striking of care or its wounding,

And the striking of anxiety or its piercing sting,

And the stabbing of grief or its thrusting.

And the stabbing of sorrow or its planted spear.

فَضُرِّي قَدْ دَعَا مِنْكُمْ

عَلِيماً سَامِعاً رِِكْزَهْ

For my plea has called upon You,

For my distress has called upon from You

All-Knowing, All-Hearing, to my support,

One All-Knowing, hearing its faintest whisper,

بِجَاهِ الْمُصْطَفَى الْمُخْتَا

رِ مَنْ رَوَّى الْوَرَى مِزَّهْ

By the status of the Chosen One, the Elect,

By the rank of the Chosen One, the

He who gave drink to the flowers of the meadow.

Selected, whose virtuous excellence quenched creation's thirst,

صَلاَةٌ دَائِماً تَسْقِي

هِ مِنْ رِضْوَانِكُمْ مَزَّهْ

A perpetual prayer watering him

May a continuous prayer pour upon

With Your good pleasure or its flow.

Him a pure draught from Your good pleasure,

عَلَيْهِ مَا حَبَاهُ الْفَجْ

رُ حُلْوَ الذِّكْرِ أَوْ مُزَّهْ

Upon him the dawn showered

Upon him, as long as the dawn

The sweetness of mention or its flow.

Grants him the sweetness of remembrance, or its pleasant tartness.
