Sol 6.1

  1. ولاؤكَ خيرُ ما تحتَ الضمير

    وأنفسُ ما تمكَّن في الصدورِ

    Loyalty to you is the best of what lies deep within the heart,

    and the most precious of what takes root in breasts.

  2. وها أنا بتُّ أحسِسُ منه ناراً

    أمِنتُ بحرِّها نارَ السعيرِ

    And behold, I spent the night sensing a fire from it;

    through its heat I felt safe from the fire of Hell.

  3. أبا حسنٍ تبيَّن غدرُ قومٍ

    لعهد اللَه من عهد الغَديرِ

    O Abu Hasan, a people's treachery became clear—

    against God's covenant, from the pledge at Ghadir.

  4. وقد قامَ النبيُّ بهم خطيباً

    فدلَّ المؤمنينَ على الأميرِ

    And the Prophet had stood among them to speak,

    and directed the believers to the Commander.

  5. أشارَ إليه فيه بكلِّ معنىً

    بَنَوهُ على مخالَفة المشيرِ

    He pointed to him there in every sense;

    they built it upon defiance of the one who pointed.

  6. فكم من حاضرٍ فيهم بقلبٍ

    يخالفُه على ذاك الحُضورِ

    For how many among them were present with a heart

    that opposed him, despite being present!

  7. طَوى يومُ الغَدير لهم حقوداً

    أنالَ بنَشرها يومَ الغَديرِ

    The day of Ghadir folded away grudges for them;

    by unfolding them, it brought on the traitor's day.

  8. فيا لك منه يوماً جرَّ قوماً

    إلى يومٍ عَبوسٍ قَمطَريرِ

    So, what a day it was, dragging a people

    to a grim, fiercely harsh day,

  9. لأمرٍ سوَّلَتهُ لهم نُفوسٌ

    وغرَّتهم به دارُ الغُرورِ

    for a deed their souls had made alluring to them,

    and through which the abode of delusion deceived them.

  10. ولست من الكثير فيطمئِنُّوا

    بأنَّ اللَهَ يعفو عن كثيرِ

    Nor are you one of the many, that they should rest assured

    that God pardons much.
