عِنايَةُ اللَهِ لا تَخفى فَضائِلَها
وَلا يَقدِرُ أَسناها أَفاضِلَها
The care of God, its virtues are not hidden
Nor can the eloquent exhaust its virtues
بِها تَكونُ ذَوو التَوفيقِ سابِقَةً
في حَلبَةِ المَجدِ مَغلوبَ مَنازِلَها
With it those granted success race ahead
In the arena of glory, surpassing all stations
دَعِ التَغَزُّلَ في حُسنا اِفتَتَنَت بِها
وَاِصرِف زَمانَكَ في الحُسنى تُغازِلَها
Leave off fancying beauty that has led you astray
And spend your time courting the good instead
أَما تَرى رايَةَ الإِقبالِ قَد رَفَعَت
وَنِسمَةَ العِزِّ قَد هَبَّت تُشاغِلُها
Do you not see the flag of fortune raised high
And the breeze of glory blowing, occupying it
لِمَن تَشَرَّفَ بِالرَحمَنِ تَسمِيَةً
وَمِنهُ عَينُ الصَفا راقَت مَناهِلَها
For the one ennobled with “the Merciful” as a name
And from Him the eye of clarity overflowed its springs
رَبُّ المَحامِدِ حامي الشَرعَ مَن سَعُدَت
بِهِ المَحاكِمَ وَاِجتَثَّت مَشاكِلَها
Lord of praise, guardian of sacred law, he whose justice
Set right the judicatures, uprooting problems
حَلَّت لَهُ خُطَّةُ العُليا فَلازَمَها
وَقُل ما يَبتَغي مِنها مَحلولُها
The supreme strategy befitted him so he clung to it
Say what he wants from it, its solutions are his
مُجانِبُ الجَورِ حُبُّ العَدلِ دَيدَنَه
إِمّا الشَمائِلُ لا يَلفى مُماثِلَها
Eschewing injustice, loving justice his way
Sublime qualities from which none deviate
نَذَرتُ لِلَهِ نَذراً إِن حَظيتُ بِها
أَوَدُّ مِن وَصلَةٍ مِنهُ أُسائِلَها
I vowed to God a vow, if I obtain it
I will value continuance from Him more than ceasing
فَلَيسَ الإِلَهُ خَلا أَكونَ عَلى
مَدى الزَمانِ وَخَدَماتي أُواصِلَها
So there is no god but that I will continue
Serving all my life and keep up the connection
وَهَذِهِ نِعمَةٌ لِلَهِ أَشكُرَها
قَد كُنتُ أَحسَبُ لَم تَسهَل وَسائِلَها
And this is a blessing from God I thank Him for
I thought its means would not be facilitated
دامَت مَعاليهِ أَنّى كانَ وَاِجتَلَيتُ
لَهُ السَعادَةَ وَالعُقبى تُقابِلَها
May his heights endure, wherever he turns
And for him I obtain happiness and recompense
هَذا وَمِنّي إِلى قَصادِ ساحَتِهِ
تَحِيَّةً لَم يَكُن طيبَ يُعادِلَها
And from me to the one of lofty domain
A greeting that has no match in pleasantness
