1. يَا أَيُّهَا الْمَوْلَى الْهُمَامْ

    وَمَنْ حَوَى أَعْلَى مَقَامْ

    O magnanimous lord,

    and you who have attained the highest station,

  2. لَقَدْ غَدَوْنَا فِي ظَلاَمْ

    مُذْ غِبْتَ يَا خَيْرَ الأَنَامْ

    we have indeed come to be in darkness

    since your absence, O best of humankind.

  3. فَابْرُزْ إِلَيْنَا نَقْتَبِسْ

    سَنَاكَ يَا بَدْرَ التَّمَامْ

    So come forth to us, that we may borrow

    your radiance, O moon in its fullness.
