لجأت بأعتاب الحبيب ابن هاشم

أمام صدور المرسلين الأكارم

I seek refuge in the thresholds of the beloved son of Hashim

Before the chests of the honorable messengers

رسول الرضى رب المعالي محمد

مثيب الغنى مفتاح كنز الغنائم

The Messenger of consent, the Lord of high ranks, Muhammad

The rewarder of wealth, the key to the treasures of booties

سراج بطاح القبلتين وكوكب ال

جود ومصباح الهدى للعوالم

A lamp illuminating the two holy mosques, and the star of

Generosity and the lantern of guidance for all worlds

كتاب علوم الغيب كشاف مغلق ال

خفايا أمير العرب مولى الأعاجم

The book of unseen sciences, the revealer of the

Secrets, the prince of Arabs, the master of non-Arabs

دليل المصلين الكرام وسيلة ال

ملبين هادي كل داعٍ وصائم

The guide of honorable prayers, the means of

Supplicators, the guide of every supplicant and faster

حبيب إله العالمين حقيقة ال

حقائق شمس الأنبياء الأعاظم

The beloved of the Lord of the worlds, the essence of

Realities, the sun of the greatest prophets

له الموكب الأعلى لدى الحشرة اللقا

له العلم المرفوع من قبل آدم

For him is the highest procession on the Day of Gathering

For him is the elevated knowledge since before Adam

له الدولة العظمى له الرفرف الذي

تسامى على العليا بأعلى الدعائم

For him is the great state, for him is the fluttering banner

That towered over the heights with the strongest pillars

له الهيكل المكنوز علماً وحكمةً

بحكمة علم من حكيم وعالم

For him is the treasured temple of knowledge and wisdom

With the wisdom of a learned and knowledgeable scholar

تجلت له أسرار كل خفيةٍ

فحل معانيها بغير مزاحم

The secrets of everything hidden were revealed to him

So he solved their meanings without a challenger

وترجم رمز اللوح في حسن منطق

بديع وفهم جل عن درك فاهم

And translated the symbolism of the Tablet eloquently

With understanding beyond the grasp of any understanding one

وأبدع نشر الطي عن كل مغلق

وأعلى ذرى الحسنى بأقوى العزائم

And uniquely spread open everything ambiguous

And raised the highest descendants with the strongest resolve

معاليه لا تحصي وأواع فضله

مطرزة من مجده بالمكارم

His glories cannot be counted and types of his virtues

Are embroidered with his glory and generosity

هو البحر بحر العلم والدين والتقى

وبحر لمعاني والهدى المراحم

He is the ocean, the ocean of knowledge, religion and piety

And the ocean of meanings, guidance and mercy

مظاهره العليا وأوصاف ذاته

تسامت عن التعريف في شعر ناظم

His sublime qualities and attributes of his essence

Transcended definition in the poetry of any composer

بطرفة عين منه يظفر بالرجا

ويكفي به السكين شر المظالم

With a glance from him, one attains wishes

And it suffices to protect against the evils of oppressors

ويعطي به المحتاج ما كان يرتجي

ويحمي به من غاشمٍ ومخاصم

And gives the needy what he wished for

And protects with it from an aggressor and adversary

إليه انتهت آمال كل مؤمل

وفي بابه تفريج كل العظائم

To him concluded hopes of every hopeful one

And in his door relief of all great things

نعم هو سلطان لبرايا وإنه

لجحفل رسل اللَه أشرف خاتم

Yes, he is the sultan of creation, and he

Is the greatest of Allah's messengers, the noble seal

ومولى أساتيذ الوجود وتاجهم

وأعظمهم من كل ماس وقادم

And master of the teachers of existence, their crown

And greatest of them from every past and future one

أناديه مجروح الفؤاد وليس لي

سواه وحالي حال عاص ونادم

I call unto him, wounded at heart, and I have

No one but him, while my state is that of disobedient and regretful

ووجهي قد سودته من خطيئتي

ودفتر أعمالي دجا بالجرائم

My face has been blackened by my sin

And the record of my deeds darkened with crimes

وحالي معنى شتته مصائبي

وأمضيت عمري بين باك وهائم

And my state is the meaning of its scattering afflictions

And I spent my life between crying and confused

ومزق شملي جيش ذنبي وذلتي

وضاعت بنفسي من همومي عزائمي

And the army of my sins tore apart my unity, and my humility

Made me lose the resolve of my soul from its worries

وقد لدت في أعتاب آل محمد

حمى كل مسكين محب وخادم

And I gave birth in the thresholds of the family of Muhammad

To the zeal of every loving and loyal servant

وأني به أحسنت ظني وبحره

بساحله العالي حصول المغانم

And that through it I thought good and in his ocean

On its sublime coast is attainment of booties

دخيل على عليا رحاب جنابه

وقد محيت مني رسوم المعالم

A guest upon the high thresholds of his side

After the features of landmarks were erased from me

أومل منه النجح والجاه والرضى

وحسن المبادي مثل وحسن الخواتم

I hope for success, glory, approval and good

Beginnings from him, like good endings

وأسأله عطفاً على حالتي التي

لها مقلتي سالت كسيل الغمائم

And I ask him for kindness upon my state

For which my eyelids poured like pouring of rain

فحاشاه أن يرضى بردي وبابه

مناخ رحال الأكرمين الأفاخم

Far from him to accept my rejection, and his door

Is the destination of the steps of the noblest and most generous

عليه صلوة اللَه والآل كلهم

وأصحابه أسد الشرى في الملاحم

Upon him, the prayers of Allah and all his family

And his companions, the lions of domains in battlefields
