أَزْكَى السَّلاَمِ عَلَى الْمُسَلَّمِ عِيسَى
مِمَّنْ يُدَرِّسُ فَخْرَهُ تَدْرِيسَا
The purest peace be upon Isa,
The purest of peace be upon the esteemed Isa,
Who teaches his pride with teaching,
From one who teaches his glory with thorough instruction,
وَيَرَى لَهُ الْحَسَبَ الْحَسِيبَ إِزَاءَهُ
نَفْسٌ تُشَوِّقُ لِلنَّفِيسِ نُفُوسَا
And sees his lineage face-to-face with him
And sees such noble honor standing as his equal,
A soul that inspires souls to what is precious
A soul that awakens in other souls a yearning for the precious.
دَامَتْ كَذِلَكَ وَالْعُلاَ تَعْلُو بِهَا
وَتَعُلُّهَا التَّمْجِيدَ وَالتَّقْدِيسَا
May it remain so, as excellence continues through it,
May it ever remain so, with high nobility rising through it,
And praise and sanctity raise it higher
Quenching it time and again with glorification and reverence.
