يا سادَةً بِمديحهم حزتُ العُلا
وَبَلَغتُ مِن نيل السَعادَةِ مَأملا
O masters, by praising them I gained elevation
And attained the hopes of fortune's favor
لي مِنكُم أَنّى أَرَدت تَوسّلا
جثث بِطيبة وَالغريّ وَكَربلا
From you all I seek intercession whenever I desire
The martyrs of Karbala, Tus, and Samarra
وَالطوس وَالزورا وَسامرّاءِ
هُم عدَّتي حَيث الأَحبّة أَعرَضَت
Are my assets whenever friends have abandoned me
And the hands of time have been against me
عَنّي وَلي أَيدي الزَمان تَعَرَّضت
حَيّا الحَيا مِنهُم عُهوداً قَد مَضَت
They were the living whose pacts have passed
Never did I seek their aid without it being granted
ما جِئتهُم في حاجَةٍ إِلّا اِنقَضَت
وَتَبَدَّل الضَرّاءُ بِالسَرّاءِ
And adversity was replaced by prosperity
