بِعَبْدِ الْخَالِقِالْجُودِ السَّخِيِّ
مَلاَذِ الْخَلْقِ ذِي الْخُلُقِ الْبَهِيِّ
With the Servant of the Bountiful Creator
Beside 'Abd al-Khaliq, the generous and bountiful,
Refuge of creation, of noble trait
The refuge of mankind, possessor of splendid character,
أَنِخْ عَنَسَ الرَّجَاءِ عَلَى يَقِينٍ
بِأَنْ يَلْقَاكَ بِالْوَجْهِ السَّنِيِّ
Lower the camel of hope to certainty
Make the she-camel of hope kneel down with certainty
That He will meet you with a joyful face
That he will receive you with a radiant face,
وَقُلْ يَا يُسْرَهُ الْمَيْسُورَ أَنْصِتْ
فَقَدْ نَادَاكَ عُسْرُ الْحَارِثِيِّ
And say: O Ease, listen to the call
And say: "O his ready ease, listen!
Of Hardship the Harithi, for he calls you
For the hardship of Al-Harithi has called out to you."
