بمَقامِ إبْراهيمَ عُذْ واصْرِفْ بِهِ

فِكَراً توَرِّقُ عنْ بَواعِثَ تنْبَري

By Abraham's station turn, reflect, be wise,

Leave behind what rouses and excites,

فجِوارُهُ حَرَمٌ وأنتَ حَمامةٌ

ورْقاءُ والأغْصانُ عودُ المِنْبَرِ

His neighbourly protection makes it sacrosanct,

You are a white dove, branches the pulpit's wood.

فلقَدْ أمِنْتَ منَ الزّمانِ ورَيْبِهِ

وهُوَ المروِّعُ للمُسيءِ وللبَري

So you are safe now from time and its mischief,

Which terrifies evildoer and innocent alike.
