يا صاح ان رمت الهدى رغم من

حاد عن النهج القويم الحسن

O friend, if you cast aside right guidance

And stray from the straight and virtuous path

لذ بالرفاعي الجليل المنن

ان الرفاعي جدير بأن

Take comfort in the eminent Al-Rifa'i

For Al-Rifa'i deserves that

ينسج بالالماس برهانه

فصوله كالزهر في حبكها

His proofs be woven with diamonds

His chapters like flowers in their weaving

تبدو عقود الدر من سلكها

وانت ان فكرت في سبكها

Appear as strands of pearls in their threading

And if you think on their crafting

آياته يعجز عن دركها

في ساحة العرفان اقرانه

His signs defy comprehension

In the realm of mystic knowledge, he has no peers
