1. رُزِقتُ صاحِبَ عَهدِهِ

    وَتَمَّ لِيَ النَسلُ بَعدي

    I was granted a companion true to his word

    And my progeny continues after me

  2. هُم يَحسُدوني عَلَيهِ

    وَيَغبِطوني بِسَعدي

    They envy me for him

    And congratulate me on my bliss

  3. وَلا أَراني وَنَجلي

    سَنَلتَقي عِندَ مَجدِ

    Neither I nor my son

    Will we meet at the place of glory?

  4. وَسَوفَ يَعلَمُ بَيتي

    أَنّي أَنا النَسلُ وَحدي

    And my family will know

    That I am the progenitor alone

  5. فَيا عَلي لا تَلُمني

    فَما اِحتِقارُكَ قَصدي

    So Ali do not blame me

    For I did not mean to scorn you

  6. وَأَنتَ مِنّي كَروحي

    وَأَنتَ مَن أَنتَ عِندي

    You are to me as my own soul

    And you are to me as you are

  7. فَإِن أَساءَكَ قَولي

    كَذِّب أَباكَ بِوَعدِ

    If my words have pained you

    Then call your father a liar of his word
