بُشرَى بإسفارِ صَباحِ النّجاح

عَن صَفْحَةِ الصّفحِ وَخَفضِ الجَناح

Good tidings of the dawn of success' travel

Of the page of pardon and the lowering of wings

قَدْ آذَنَ المَنُّ بِحَوْزِ المُنى

وَأَعْلَنَ الكَدْحُ بِفَوْزِ القِداح

The wish has given notice of gaining what is sought

And struggle has announced the winning of the prize

هَذا افتِتاحُ الصَومِ مُسْتَقبَلاً

عَن اختِتام بِالرّضى وافتِتاح

This is the inauguration of fasting in the future

After conclusion with contentment and inauguration

إنَّ الإمامَ الهاديَ المُرتَضَى

أكّدَ بالعَطْفِ شُرُوطَ السّماح

Indeed the guiding Imam Al-Murtaza

Has emphasized with kindness the conditions of pardon

لِينُ السّجايا عاطِراتٍ كَما

هَزّ الرّياحينَ هُبوبُ الرّياح

To soften rigid natures like

The blowing winds stirred the winds

وَحُسْنُ إِسْجاحٍ يَليهِ النّدَى

لِذَا انِفِتاحٌ ولِذاَك انفِساح

And the beauty of submission followed by moisture

Thus there is openness and so there is relaxation

لَوْ جُبِل الدّهْرُ عَلى حِلْمِهِ

لَم يَكُ مِنْه للنُفوسِ اكْتِساح

If fate were created according to his forbearance

There would be no overpowering of souls

عَفْواً إمامَ الحَقِّ عَن خاطِئ

أسْرَفَ للغاياتِ مِنه طِماح

Forgive, Imam of truth, the mistaken one

Who was excessive in his ambitions

قَدْ راضَهُ بالكَبْحِ تأديبُه

وَلَمْ يُجَاهِرْ عامِداً بالجِماح

He was pleased with himself by restraint and discipline

And did not openly flaunt with pride

أذْنَبَ لَكِنْ تَابَ مِنْ فَوْرِه

وفي قَبُولِ التّوبِ رَفْعُ الجُناح

He sinned but repented immediately

And in accepting repentance is the lifting of wings

حَسْبِيَ شَفيعاً لك في هَفْوَتي

حُبّ ونُصْحٌ وثَنَاءٌ صُراح

My intercessor with you for my lapses is sufficient

Love, advice and candid praise

بَرَحَ بِي الشّوْقُ إلَى حَضْرَةٍ

لَيسَ لِمَنْ وُفِّقَ عَنْها بَراح

Yearning took me to a presence

That has no serenity for one deprived of it

وَهِمْتُ فيها بِاقْتِرابٍ فَلَمْ

تُثْمِرْ لِيَ الأقْدَارُ غَيْر انتِزاح

I aspired to draw near but

The destinies produced for me nothing but recoil

لا زِلْتَ والزّلاتُ شَأنُ الوَرَى

تَهْتَزُّ للصَّفْحِ اهْتِزازَ الصِّفَاح

You remain while lapses are the way of the world

Swaying with pardon like the swaying of sieves
