أَنا عبدٌ لسيّد الأنبياءِ

وَولائي لهُ القديم ولائي

I am a servant of the Master of Prophets

And my loyalty to him is everlasting

أَنا عبدٌ لعبدهِ ولعبد ال

عَبد عبدٌ كذا بغير اِنتهاءِ

I am a servant of his servant and Allah's servant

A perpetual servant without end

أَنا لا أَنتهي عنِ القرب من با

بِ رضاه في جملةِ الدخلاءِ

I do not stop seeking closeness

To the door of his pleasure amongst all who enter

أَنشرُ العلمَ في معاليه للنا

سِ وَأَشدوا به مع الشعراءِ

I spread knowledge of his sublime traits to all people

And sing of it alongside poets

فَعَساهُ يقولُ لي أنتَ سلما

نُ وَلائي حسّان حُسن ثنائي

May he say to me “You are my loyal Salman”

And “You have spoken well of me”

وَبروحي أَفدي ترابَ حماهُ

وَله الفضلُ في قَبول فدائي

By my soul I ransom the soil of his tomb

To him belongs all merit in my sacrifice

فازَ مَن يَنتمي إليهِ ولا حا

جةَ فيه لذلك الإنتماءِ

Blessed is he who claims ties to him

For that claim no proof is needed

هوَ في غنيةٍ عن الخلقِ طرّاً

وَهمُ الكلُّ عنه دون غناءِ

He is free of all needs unlike people

And people are nothing without him

وَهوَ للَّه وحدهُ عبدهُ الخا

لِصُ مَجلى الصفات والأسماءِ

He belongs only to Allah, His sincere servant

Manifest in attributes and names

كلُّ فضلٍ في الخلق فهو من اللَ

هِ إِليهِ ومنه للأشياءُ

Any excellence found in creation is from Allah

To Him and from Him to all things
