1. سَأَلتُكَ يا وَهّابُ بِالآيَةِ الكُبرى

    وَبِالساحَةِ الغَبراءَ وَالقُبَّةُ الخَضرا

    I beseech You, O Bestower, by the greatest sign,

    And by the dust-colored courtyard and the green dome,

  2. وَبِالمَسجِدِ الأَقصى وَبِالحَبلِ وَالعَصا

    وَبِالنَشأَةِ الأولى وَبِالنَشرَةِ الأُخرى

    And by Al-Aqsa Mosque, and by the rope and the staff,

    And by the first creation and the later resurrection,

  3. وَبِالنورِ وَالبُرهانِ وَالفَيضِ وِالبَها

    وَبِالصَبغَةِ العُظمى وِبِالحِكمَةِ الغَرَّ

    And by the light, the proof, the outpouring, and the splendor,

    And by the supreme coloring and by radiant wisdom:

  4. أَنِلني ما شَوَّقتَني لِمَنالِهِ

    وَأَسعَدَ بِهِ جَدّي وَزِدني بِهِ فَخرا

    Grant me what You have made me yearn to attain,

    And bless my fortune through it, and increase my pride thereby,

  5. وَأَوجَدَ فُؤادي مِنهُ وَراحَةً

    تَطيبُ لي نَفساً وَتَشرَحُ لي صَدرا

    And grant my heart repose from it,

    That gladdens my soul and expands my breast.
