عَلى رَسولِ اللَهِ مِنّي السَلام

ما كانَ إِلّا رَحمَةً لِلأَنام

Peace be upon the Messenger of Allah from me,

He was nothing but a mercy for all people.

أَحيا بِهِ اللَهُ قُلوباً كَما

أَحيا مَواتَ الأَرضِ صَوبُ الغَمام

With him Allah revived hearts, just as

The clouds revive the barren earth.

أَكرِم بِهِ لِلخَلقِ مِن مُبلِغٍ

هادٍ وَلِلناسِ بِهِ مِن إِمام

He honored mankind by sending a bearer

Who guided and led people as an imam.

وَأَصبَحَ الحَقُّ بِهِ قائِماً

وَأَصبَحَ الباطِلُ دَحضَ المَقام

Truth stood firm through him,

While falsehood vanished and lost all standing.

كانَ رَسولُ اللَهِ يَدعو إِلى

مَدرَجَةِ الحَقِّ وَدارِ السَلام

The Messenger of Allah called to

The path of truth and abode of peace.

يا عَينُ قَد نِمتِ فَاستَنبِهي

ما اجتَمَعَ الخَوفُ وَطيبُ المَنام

O eye that sleeps, awaken,

When fear and sweet dreams come together.

أَكرَهُ أَن أَلقى حِمامي وَلا

بُدَّ لِحَيٍّ مِن لِقاءِ الحِمام

I dislike to meet my fate, but

The living cannot avoid their destiny.

لابُدَّ مِن مَوتٍ بِدارِ البِلى

وَاللَهُ بَعدَ المَوتِ يُحيِ العِظَم

Death in the abode of woe is inevitable,

Yet after death Allah will revive the bones.

يا طالِبَ الدُنيا وَلَذّاتِها

هَل لَكَ في مُلكٍ طَويلِ المُقام

O seeker of the world and its pleasures,

Can any kingdom endure forever?

مَن جاوَرَ الرَحمَنَ فيدارِهِ

تَمَّت لَهُ النِعمَةُ كُلَّ التَمام

Who dwells with the All-Merciful in His abode

Will have perfect bliss in full.
