على المُصطفى المُختار من آل هاشمٍ

صلاة الذي فينا أقامَ به الشَّرعا

Blessings upon the Chosen One from the family of Hashim

Prayers upon the one who established the Law among us

علمنا بحمد اللَه أن نبينا

أجلُّ الورى أصلاً وأزكاهُمُ فرعا

We praise Allah that He taught us our Prophet

Is the most noble of creation in lineage and character

علينا به حصنٌ حصين فحسبُنا

بأنَّا رعايا وهي أضحى لنا يرعى

Through him we have a fortress, a stronghold

It suffices us that we are his followers and he watches over us

علِقنا بحَبلٍ من حبالِ محمَّدٍ

أَمنَّا به في ديننا الوَهنَ والصدعا

We hold fast to the rope of Muhammad

Through it we are safe in our religion from weakness and schism

عقيدتُنا قد أُحكِمت بولايةٍ

دفعنا بها ضرّاً ونلنا بها نفعاً

Our creed is made firm by loyalty

We repel harm through it and attain benefit

عَصمنا به من كلِّ شركٍ وربية

فطوبى لمن ألقى إلى قوله السَّمعا

It protects us from all polytheism and falsehood

Happy is he who listens to his words

عفا اللَه عنَّا مُذ رجعنا لأمرهِ

ونرجُوا أماناً إذ إلى ربنا الرُّجعى

May Allah forgive us since we returned to his cause

And we hope for safety as to our Lord is the return

علمنا له المدحَ الذي راقَ نظمُهُ

مهما رِقَةً قد فاقت الوشي من صنعا

We know the praise that suits his excellent verse

However subtle, it surpasses the expert artisan's work

عداهُ لدى الدارين قد خابَ سعيهم

كفى اللَه من ولاه من خيبةٍ المعنى

Those who oppose him, their endeavors fail

Allah suffices him against those disappointed

عكفتُ على مدحي له متيقنا

بدفعِ خطوبٍ لا أطبقُ لها دفعا

I am occupied praising him, certain

That I repel adversities which I cannot repel
