مَقَامُ أَبِي نَافِعٍ نَافِعُ

لِمَنْ زَارَهُ وَالْهُدَى شَافِعُ

The sanctuary of Abu Nafi is truly beneficial,

For the one who visits it, with true guidance as an intercessor;

وَلاَ سَيَّمَا مَنْ بَنَى قُبَّةً

بِهِ نُورُ بَهْجَتِهَا سَاطِعُ

And most especially for the one who built a dome,

From which the light of its radiant splendor shines forth.

فَذَاكَ الذِي يَرْتَوِي عَلَلاً

بِكَأْسِ مُنىً بِرُّهُ نَاقِعُ

For he is the one who quenches his thirst, draught after draught,

From a cup of aspirations whose pure goodness is deeply satisfying;

وَيَحْظَى بِأَرْغَبِ مَرْغُوبِهِ

وَلَيْسَ لَهُ مِنْ عُلاً مَانِعُ

He shall attain the most coveted of all his desires,

With no obstacle to restrain him from reaching eminence.

وَيَعْلُو بِحَوْلِ الإِلَهِ على

حَسُودٍ لَهُ طَرْفُهُ دَامِعُ

And he shall ascend, by the might of God, high above

Every envier whose eyes are brought to resentful tears;

ضَمِنْتُ لَهُ عَنْ أَبِي نَافِعٍ

مِنَ النَّفْعِ مَا يَرْتَجِي النَّافِعُ

I guarantee him, on behalf of Abu Nafi,

All the benefit that a seeker of good could ever hope for.

وَأَهْوِنْ بِذَاكَ عَلَى جَاهِ مَنْ

تَجَلَّى لَنَا سِرُّهُ الرَّائِعُ

And how easily granted is this, by the high rank of the one

Whose awe-inspiring secret has been made manifest to us;

وَآيَاتُهُ كُتِبَتْ لِلْوَرَى

عَلَى الْبَدْرِ فَهْوَ بِهَا طَالِعُ

Whose sacred signs were inscribed for all mankind

Upon the full moon, so that it rises radiant with them.
