يا بنَ خير الورى ومَنْ
جاءَ بالحقَّ والهُدى
O son of the best of creation, who
Came with the truth and guidance
وابنَ صنوِ النَّبيّ حي
در نَفْسي له الفِدا
And son of the Prophet's pillar alive
I would sacrifice myself for him
والهُمام الّذي تأزَّرَ
بالمجدِ وارتدَى
And the determined one who wore
The mantle of glory
والكريم الّذي تَقدَمَ
في حلْبةِ النَّدى
And the generous one who stepped forward
In the field of generosity
والَّذي طابَ في البريّةِ
أصلاَ ومحتِدَا
And the one whose origin in the wilderness was pure
And steadfast
والّذي لم يُحط بنعماهُ
مَنْ قامَ مُنْشدا
And the one whose favors were never diminished
By those who stood reciting poetry
أنت غيثً على العُفاةِ
وليثٌ على العِدى
You are a rain for the weak
And a lion against the enemies
لكَ أَشكُو نَوائِباً
تركتْني مُسَهَّدا
I complain to you of afflictions
That left me prostrate
وسهاماً بها رَمَاني
زَماني فَأَقْصَدا
And arrows with which my time shot me
So it pierced me
وديوناً غدا بهنَّ
مَنَامي مُشرّدا
And debts that made
My dreams scattered
فأعنّي بنفحةٍ
وجزيلٍ من الجدا
So help me with a breeze
And abundant generosity
