أَينَ دَهائي وَالهَوى طالِبي

تَيَّمَني حُبُّ أَبي طالِبِ

Where is my cunning, and desire is my pursuer

The love of my father Abu Talib has left me an orphan

قُلتُ لَهُ وَالسُقمُ قَد طالَ بي

صِلني بِحَقِّ أَبي طالِبِ

I said to him, while the illness had afflicted me long

Unite me in the name of my father Abu Talib
