إِنَّ عَلِيّاً وَجَعفَراً ثِقَتي
عِندَ اِحتِدامِ الأُمورِ وَالكُرَبِ
Indeed, Ali and Ja‘far are my trusted support
when affairs and hardships rage.
أَراهُما عُرضَةَ اللِقاءِ إِذا
سامَيتُ أَو أَنتَمي إِلى حَسَبِ
I see them both ready for battle whenever
I vie for honor or claim noble descent.
لا تَخذُلا وَاِنصُرا اِبنَ عَمِّكُما
أَخي لِأُمّي مِن بَينِهِم وَأَبي
Do not forsake him; support the son of your uncle—
my brother among them, sharing my mother and father.
وَاللَهِ لا أَخذُلُ النَبِيَّ وَلا
يَخذُلهُ مِن بَنِيَّ ذو حَسَبِ
By God, I will not forsake the Prophet, nor
will any son of mine of noble standing forsake him.
Sol 6.1
