حبي لأهلي وأولادي وعائلتي
ومن يلوذ بأهلي حب ذي شيم
My love for my family, children and relatives
And whoever takes refuge with my family has a love of noble character
فمن أحبهم أحببته علنا
وباطناً وأنا ضد لضدهم
So whoever loves them, I have loved openly
And inwardly, though I oppose their opponent
الأقربون بهم أوصى الإله وذا
سر لعارف معنى وصلة الرحم
The near ones, God has entrusted them and that
Is a secret to the one who knows the meaning of maintaining kinship
وإن لي رتبة في حفظ رتبتهم
من كل عاره تعلو عندهم هممي
And I have a rank in preserving their rank
From any dishonor, my determination rises above for them
وشأن يعقوب ينبي عن غوامض ما
في طي منشور منظومي من الحكم
And the affair of Jacob hints to the subtleties of what
Is folded in the published, poetic wisdom
وغارة المصطفى في أمر عترته
وأهله الغر تروي عن ذوي الكرم
And the Prophet's protective jealousy regarding his family
And household, the uncouth, it narrates about the generous
والاغتصاب لأهل البيت شيده
خير الوجود وهذا بعده قدمي
And the usurpation of the People of the House, he built it
The best of existence, and after this is my step
