أهدى إلى خير الأنام تحيةً
مُهدٍ هداه إلى السلام هُداه
I offer greetings to the best of mankind
One who was guided to peace, his guidance led him
يبغي الرضا بوسيلة مقبولة
بُشراه قد ظفرَتْ بذاك يداه
He seeks satisfaction through acceptable means
His good tidings have succeeded through his hands
فالله قد وعد النبيَّ بأنه
يجزى بعشرٍ كلَّ من حياه
For God has promised the Prophet that
He will reward tenfold all who greet him
أكرمْ به عملاً أبان سبيله
يُحيي أمين الشرع بل أحياه
Honor him with good deeds, make clear his way
He brings life to the trustee of sacred law, indeed gave him life
فجزاه رب العرش خيرَ جزائه
بسلامه الزاكي لناريّاه
So may the Lord of the Throne reward him the best of rewards
With his purified peace for his fiery one
