يا شفيع الورى وغوث البرايا

ومجيب المضطر عند الدعاء

O intercessor for humankind and succor of creation,

and you who answer the distressed when they pray,

كن مجيري مما ألاقي فإني

قل صبري وضاق صدري بدائي

be my protector from what I endure, for I

have little patience left, and my breast is constricted by my illness.

عز برئي على الأطباء طرا

إذ أقرّوا بالعجز والإعياء

My cure has proved too difficult for all the physicians,

as they have admitted their helplessness and exhaustion.

منك بعد الإله ارجو شفائي

فاسقنى من يديك كاس الشفاء

After God, I hope for my healing from you.

So give me the cup of healing to drink from your hands.

نظرة منك منحة وعطاء

من سواك الجدير بالإعطاء

A glance from you is a boon and a gift.

Who but you is worthy to give?

فرضاكم عنى يزيل سقامى

ودواء يا جد أي دواء

For your being pleased with me dispels my sickness,

and is a cure, O grandfather—what a cure!

فبحق القرآن والشرع زرني

زورة بها يزول عنائي

So, by the sanctity of the Qur'an and the sacred Law, visit me,

with a visit through which my suffering vanishes.

وبحق البتول والآل كن لي

وبحق الحسين حقق رجائي

And, by the sanctity of al-Batul and the Family, stand by me,

and, by the sanctity of al-Husayn, fulfill my hope.
