اُعيذُ يداً وقفاً على البأس والندى

تسحُّهما في مُستجيرٍ ومُعْدمِ

I call out in the darkness for help to defend and protect

Those in need of safety and deprived of provision

بألْطافِ ربِّ العرش من كل حادث

وشاملِ حِفْظِ اللّهِ من كل مؤلم

By the grace of the Lord of the Throne against all misfortunes

And under the all-encompassing protection of God from all suffering

تعوَّدَتِ الجودَ العميمَ بكلِّ ما

حَوتْهُ فجادتْ للنُّطاسيِّ بالدَّمِ

Generosity has become its habit with all it contains

So it was generous to al-Nuṭāsī with blood
