1. طابَ مَدح النَبي نَشراً وَبَسطا

    فَغَدا في مسامع القَوم قرطا

    Sweet is praise of the Prophet, spread abroad and unfolded;

    so it became an earring in the people's ears.

  2. طالَما نَدفع العَنا بِثَناء

    وَنَقط العَدو بِالمَدح قَطا

    How often we ward off hardship with praise,

    and sever the enemy clean through with praise.

  3. طالبتني حَوائِجي بِصَلاة

    وَسَلام عَلَيهِ إِذ كانَ شَرطا

    My needs demanded that I invoke blessings

    and peace upon him, since that was a condition.

  4. طيب الذكر ما اِبتَدَأت دُعاء

    بِصَلاة عَلَيهِ يَوماً فَأَبطا

    Sweet is the mention of him: no supplication I have begun

    with blessings upon him has ever been slow to be answered.

  5. طبت يا زائِراً بطيبة قَبراً

    قَد حَوى سُؤدداً وَفَضلاً وَقسطاً

    Blessed are you, O visitor to a tomb in Taybah,

    that indeed holds nobility, virtue, and justice.

  6. طف بذاك الضريح والثم ثراه

    وتذكر فتى عن الربع شطا

    Circle that tomb and kiss its soil,

    and remember a young man who has gone far from the abode.

  7. طنب النَحس في حماه فَأَضحى

    ثاوياً عِندَ أَهلِهِ يَتَمَطى

    Misfortune pitched its tent in his refuge and came to be

    lodged among his household, stretching itself at ease.

  8. طفحت لجة الذُنوب عَلَيه

    فَلِذا عَن مَناهج الخَير أَخطا

    The deep sea of sins has overflowed upon him;

    and so he has strayed from the paths of goodness.

  9. طَرَقته نَوائب الدَهر لَكِن

    حَبل آماله بِكُم زادَ رَبطا

    The calamities of time have come upon him, yet

    the cord of his hopes has grown more tightly bound to you.

  10. طاحَ يا أَكرَم الوَرى فَتَدارك

    وافِداً عِندَ بابك الرَحب حطا

    He has fallen, O most generous of all creation; so rescue

    a visitor who has alighted at your spacious doorway.
