حبيبُ إله العالمينَ محمدٌ

به يُخَتمُ الذكرُ الجميلُ ويُفتحُ

Muhammad, beloved of the Lord of the worlds

With him the beautiful mention concludes and commences

حوى سؤدداً لم يحوِ كيوانُ بعضَهُ

وحلما عدا كالطَّودِ بل هو أرجَحُ

He memorized volumes, the like of which no creature has memorized some

And a dream except like a towering mountain, nay it is more steadfast

حَبانا بإرشادٍ دعانا إلى الهُدى

نبيُّ به نهجُ الهدايةِ مُوضَحُ

He guided us to guidance with his benevolent guidance

A prophet through whom the path of guidance is made clear

حليمٌ إذا ما اَمَّ مَغناهُ مُذنبٌ

يُؤَمِّلُ منه العَفو يعفُو ويصفَحُ

He is forbearing, so if a sinner approaches him

He hopes for pardon from him, he pardons and overlooks

حَمدنا إله الخلقِ إذ خَصَّنَا به

ونحمدُه بعد الإله ونمدَحُ

We praise the God of creation for distinguishing us with him

And we praise Him after God and we laud Him

حميدُ المساعي كم حوت كفهُ الحصى

فراحَت بإذن اللَه وهي تُسَبِّحُ

Of glorious endeavors, how many pebbles has his palm grasped

Then they left by God's permission while glorifying

حُسامٌ لنصرِ الحقِّ أضحى مجرداً

على قدمِ التجريدَ يُمسى ويُصبحُ

A sword for the victory of truth, he became bare

At the station of denudation he spends the night and wakes

حَرامٌ على عَينيَّ نومُهما الذي

ينفِّرهُ دمعٌ بخديَّ يسفَّحُ

Sleep is forbidden upon my eyes, that which

Saddens it, a tear flows down my cheek

حفظت عُهوداً للحبيب الذي لهُ

بقَلبي وأن لم يَدنُ وجدٌ مُبرِّحُ

I have kept the covenants of the beloved, for whom

There is love in my heart, even if he does not come near, a love that makes happy

حمامَ اللوى عَرِّض بشَكواكَ إنَّني

أعرِّضُ بالشكوى وطَوراً أُصَرِّحُ

The dove of passion, unburden your complaints, indeed I

Unburden complaints and at times explicitly state
