طابَ مَدح النَبي نَشراً وَبَسطا

فَغَدا في مسامع القَوم قرطا

Praising the Prophet spread widely

And became well-known amongst the people

طالَما نَدفع العَنا بِثَناء

وَنَقط العَدو بِالمَدح قَطا

We often repel harm with praise

And strike the enemy with eulogy

طالبتني حَوائِجي بِصَلاة

وَسَلام عَلَيهِ إِذ كانَ شَرطا

My needs called upon me

To send blessings and peace upon him as duty

طيب الذكر ما اِبتَدَأت دُعاء

بِصَلاة عَلَيهِ يَوماً فَأَبطا

The remembrance is good when supplication begins

With sending blessings upon him one day so it brings reward

طبت يا زائِراً بطيبة قَبراً

قَد حَوى سُؤدداً وَفَضلاً وَقسطاً

Greetings O visitor to the fragrant grave

That contains felicity, virtue and justice

طف بذاك الضريح والثم ثراه

وتذكر فتى عن الربع شطا

Visit that shrine and scent its soil

And remember the youth from the open desert

طنب النَحس في حماه فَأَضحى

ثاوياً عِندَ أَهلِهِ يَتَمَطى

Ill-omen struck his protector so he ended up

Settling with his family dismayed

طفحت لجة الذُنوب عَلَيه

فَلِذا عَن مَناهج الخَير أَخطا

The floods of sins overwhelmed him

Thus he deviated from the path of good

طَرَقته نَوائب الدَهر لَكِن

حَبل آماله بِكُم زادَ رَبطا

The calamities of fate struck him but

Your rope of hopes for him remains tied

طاحَ يا أَكرَم الوَرى فَتَدارك

وافِداً عِندَ بابك الرَحب حطا

He fell O most generous of mankind so save

A visitor at your vast door that halted
