الحمدُ للهِ لي للمُصْطَفى نَسَبٌ

مُنَزَّهُ الشَّأنِ عن قالٍ وعن قيلِ

Praise be to Allah, I belong to the lineage of Al-Mustafa

Of noble character, above saying and speech

عَلا به جَدُّنا الصَّيَّادُ فارتفَعَتْ

له مَنابِرُ إجْلالٍ وتَفْضيلِ

Through him our grandfather the fisherman was exalted

Pulpits of veneration and preference were raised for him

سَمَتْ به لأَبي العَبَّاسِ حابِكَةٌ

جادَتْ بسيفٍ من البُرْهانِ مَصْقولِ

With him a protective covering was placed over Abul Abbas

It came forth with a sword of evidence well-polished

أبُوَّةٌ أيَّدَ الرَّحمنُ رتبَتَها

بنورِ صدقٍ بعينِ اللهِ مَشْمولِ

A fatherhood which Ar-Rahman confirmed its status

With the light of truthfulness enveloped by the eye of Allah

قامَ الرِّفاعِيُّ في أوْساطِها قَمَراً

يجلو المَعاني بإجْمالٍ وتَفْصيلِ

Al-Rifa'i stood among them as a shining moon

Clarifying meanings with brevity and elaboration

وقمتُ عنهُ بمنْهاجِ البُنُوَّةِ في

طَوْرٍ ترفَّعَ عن حرفٍ وتبديلِ

And I stood by his curriculum of sonship

At a rank elevated above letters and changes

ولي أُصولٌ تَسامَتْ في مَعارِجِها

بكلِّ فحلٍ شَريفِ الأصلِ بُهْلولِ

And I have origins that rose in their steps

With every noble-born stalwart of pure descent

عرقُ الأُمومَةِ للأسْتاذِ يرفعُني

أَبي الخَوارِقِ عبد القادرِ الجيلي

The lineage of professorship to my father raises me

My father the marvels, Abd al-Qadir al-Jilani

قطبِ الرِّجالِ رئيسِ العارِفينَ ومن

يُعزى له الحالُ مشْفوعاً بتَبْجيلِ

The axis of men, the chief of the gnostics, the one

To whom the state is attributed accompanied with veneration

من آلِ بيتٍ كِرامٍ مسكُ سيرَتِهِمْ

يَفوحُ في النَّاس من جيلٍ إلى جيلِ

From the family of honorable nobility whose way of life

Spreads fine fragrance among people from generation to generation

إلى العَواتِكِ قدْ أدْلَتْهُ سِلسِلَةٌ

بكلِّ عِقدٍ بحبلِ اللهِ مَوْصولِ

To the high minarets, a chain guided him

With every link joined by Allah's rope

وبعدَ هذا وهذا تمَّ لي شَرَفي

وحقَّقَ اللهُ بالمُخْتارِ مأمولي

And after this and that, my nobility was completed

And Allah fulfilled my hopes through the Chosen One
