في شَهرِ مَولِدِ طَهَ
ذاكَ الحَبيبُ المُقَرَّبُ
In the month of Taha's birth
That beloved one brought near
عَلى نورٍ أَتاهُ
بِنتُ لِتَسمو وَتُنجِبُ
Upon a light he came to her
So that she may transcend and give birth
وَزَينَباً قَد دَعاها
وَنِعمَ الاِسمِ المُحَبَّبُ
And Zainab he had called her
What a lovely, beloved name
وَأَهلَها الكُلُّ قالوا
أَهلاً وَسَهلاً وَمَرحَبُ
And all her family said
Welcome, greetings, joy to you
أَما أَنا قُلتُ أَرخِ
عَوذَتَ بِاللَهِ زَينَبُ
As for me I said, "Bestow your protection
O God upon Zainab"
