1. يا واحدِ الناس في الآلاء والمننِ

    والمستجارَ به من حادثِ الزمنِ

    O peerless one among men in blessings and benefactions,

    And you with whom refuge is sought from time’s calamities,

  2. وابنَ الذين بنوا أساس دولتهم

    على النبوة والقرآن والسُّننِ

    And son of those who built the foundation of their state

    On prophethood, the Qur’an, and the prophetic traditions,

  3. أشدُّ ما بيَ من شكوٍ ومن ألمٍ

    فقدي جَنَى مقلتي من وجهك الحسنِ

    The severest of the suffering and pain I bear

    Is my loss of the fruit my eye gathers from your beautiful face.
