لحظّك بالعُلى بالفوزِ قِدْحُ

وذَكرِك في غريب المجد شَرْحُ

Your moment with glory's zenith aligned,

And your name with strange glory intertwined,

رأيتُ مُحمداً والناسَ طرّاً

شَكا وشَكوا فلَمّا صحّ صحّوا

I saw Muhammad while people bustled about,

He complained and they complained until health prevailed and they recovered,

مُحِبّكَ في التّقى بهداكَ يُهْدى

وينحو في العُلى ما أنْت تنحو

Your lover in piety is guided by your guidance,

And ascends heights wherever you ascend,

فَبُلّغْتَ المُنى فيه ومَرّتْ

به تلك الليالي وهي صُلْحُ

You attained the wish in him and there passed

Through him those nights while they reconciled,

ونلتَ سعادةً ما اسودّ ليلٌ

وعينَ كرامةٍ ما ابيضّ صبحُ

And you attained a happiness no night has blackened,

And an eye of nobility no dawn has whitened,

فَرَفْعُ النجمِ في علياكَ خَفْضٌ

وفَيْضُ البَحرِ في نُعماكَ رشحُ

So raising the star in your heights is lowering,

And the sea's abundance in your bounty is sprinkling.
