قِف وَاجِماً وَاِنظُر بِطَرفٍ ساكِبِ

قِف وَاجِماً وَاِنظُر بِطَرفٍ ساكِبِ

لِمَكارِمٍ مَشهورَةٍ كَكَواكِبِ

لِمَكارِمٍ مَشهورَةٍ كَكَواكِبِ

Stand silent with grief, and gaze with a weeping eye

Stand in awe and gaze with overflowing eyes,

At renowned virtues, like stars,

At virtues as renowned as the stars in the skies.

وَمَقامِ رِضوانٍ وَسِرٍّ لائِحٍ

وَمَقامِ رِضوانٍ وَسِرٍّ لائِحٍ

لِلزائِرينَ وَمَلجإٍ لِلطّالِبِ

لِلزائِرينَ وَمَلجإٍ لِلطّالِبِ

And a place of divine favor, and a mystery shining forth

This is the station of Ridwan and secrets unveiled,

To visitors, and a refuge for the seeker.

For visitors a refuge, for seekers their grail.

هَذا مَقامُ الشابِبيِّ مُحَمَّدٍ

هَذا مَقامُ الشابِبيِّ مُحَمَّدٍ

ذي مَكرُماتٍ عِدّةٍ وَمَناقِب

ذي مَكرُماتٍ عِدّةٍ وَمَناقِب

This is the resting place of Muhammad al-Shabibi,

This is the place of the youthful Muhammad,

Possessed of many noble deeds and virtues,

With numerous merits and noble accolades clad.

وَسَريرَةٍ طَهُرَت وَنورٍ ساطِع

وَسَريرَةٍ طَهُرَت وَنورٍ ساطِع

يَغشى العُيونَ وَلَيسَ ضَوءَ حُباحِبِ

يَغشى العُيونَ وَلَيسَ ضَوءَ حُباحِبِ

And an inner nature grown pure, and a radiant light

His inner light purified and illumination poured,

That dazzles the eyes—not the faint glow of fireflies.

Flooding all sights, no flares of deluders this radiancy marred.

لَبّى النِداءَ لِجَنَّةٍ وَثَوى بِها

لَبّى النِداءَ لِجَنَّةٍ وَثَوى بِها

في حِزبِ قَومٍ لا يُذادُ بِحاجِبِ

في حِزبِ قَومٍ لا يُذادُ بِحاجِبِ

He answered the call to Paradise and dwelt there,

Hearkening the call to a heavenly abode, therein he stayed,

Among a company of people, unbarred by any doorkeeper.

Amongst a party of souls, unmatched by any shade.

فَأخلِص لَهُ وَجهَ الدُعاء مُؤَمِّناً

فَأخلِص لَهُ وَجهَ الدُعاء مُؤَمِّناً

وَمُؤَمِّلاَ فَضلاً وَنَيلَ مَطالِبِ

وَمُؤَمِّلاَ فَضلاً وَنَيلَ مَطالِبِ

So pray sincerely for him, saying 'Amen,'

So pray to him sincerely, with faith and hope demonstrated,

And hoping for grace and the fulfillment of your wishes.

Seeking grace and attainment of aspirations waited.

وَاللَهُ يَقبَلُ فيهِ قَولَ مُؤَرّخٍ

وَاللَهُ يَقبَلُ فيهِ قَولَ مُؤَرّخٍ

قَد جَلَّ حِزبُ مُحَمَّدٍ الشابِبي

قَد جَلَّ حِزبُ مُحَمَّدٍ الشابِبي

And may God accept a chronogram writer's words about him:

And Allah accepts, this verse of a chronicler states,

Muhammad al-Shabibi's company has indeed grown exalted.

Exalted indeed is Muhammad's glorious traits.
