يا نَبِيّاً عَلَيكَ مَولاكَ صَلّى
وَأُمِرنا أَنّا نُصَلّي عَلَيكا
O Prophet, may your Master bless you
And we are commanded that we pray upon you
كُلُّ ما نُهدي مِن صَلاتِكَ فَالأَم
لاكُ مِنّا قَد بَلَّغَتها إِلَيكا
All that we present of your prayers, so the traveler
From us has delivered them to you
فَتَرُدُّ السَلامَ فَضلاً عَلَينا
وَكَفانا أَنّا ذُكِرنا لَدَيكا
So you return the greeting as a favor upon us
And it suffices us that we were mentioned before you
غَيرَ أَنَّ الصَلاةَ في اللَيلَةِ الزَه
راءِ تَحظى بِالسَمعِ مِن أُذُنَيكا
Except that the prayer in the luminous night
Is privileged to be heard by your ears
فَعَلَيكَ الصَلاةُ مِنّا تَواخَت
بِسَلامٍ مُقَبِّلٍ أَخمَصَيكا
So upon you is the prayer from us accompanied
By a greeting kissing your heels
وَالتَحايا بِالروحِ نَحوَكَ راحَت
تَرتَجي اللَثمَ مِن شَريفِ يَدَيكا
And the regards in spirit went to you
Hoping to kiss the noble of your hands
مِن عُبَيدٍ يَهديكَ دَوماً صَلاةً
ما نَسيمُ الأَسحارِ صافَحَ أَيكا
From servants who always gift you prayer
As long as the dawn breeze touched any of you
