لأهلِ بِطاحِ الحَيِّ في سِدْرةِ العُلى

جليلُ مَكانٍ بالمَفاخرِ باذِخُ

For the people of Bitaah al-Hayy in Sidrat al-Ulya

A place of great prestige, outstanding in pride

وعِزٌّ وسُلطانٌ ومَجدٌ ومِنعةٌ

ورُكْنٌ بأحكامِ البَراهينِ شامخُ

Of power, authority, glory, and prestige

And steadfast in the arguments of clear proofs

لهم يدُ فَضلٍ أغْرقَ الكونَ جودُها

لهم قَدمٌ في منهجِ الحَقِّ راسِخُ

Their hands have overflowed the universe with generosity

Their feet are firmly rooted in the path of truth

لهمْ أبداً آياتُ حالٍ جَليلةٌ

أتَتْ مُحْكماتٍ ما لها قطُّ ناسخُ

For them, always, are clear signs

Brought by firm decrees that have no abolisher

مَشايخُ أهلِ الله للقومِ قادةٌ

وهمْ لهُمُ في المَنْهجَيْنِ مَشايخُ

The elders of God's people are leaders for the nation

And they for the people, in both paths, are elders
