1. إلى الله أشكو ماهو أعلم به مني

    وذاك سبب ذنبي فيارب ارحمني

    To God I complain of what He knows better than I.

    And that is the cause of my sin; so, Lord, have mercy on me.

  2. وتب توبة مقبولة وصحيحة

    على بها ترفع جميع الذي امحني

    And grant an accepted and sound repentance,

    To me, through which You lift away all that afflicts me.

  3. تفضل تفضل ياإلهي وسيدي

    فإلى سواك من بليتي ينفعني

    Be gracious, be gracious, O my God and my Master.

    For who besides You can help me in my affliction?

  4. تفضل كريم الوجه وامنن برحمة

    بها من جميع الكرب والهم تحفظني

    Be gracious, O noble of countenance, and bestow mercy,

    Through which You protect me from all anguish and worry.

  5. فإني وإن كنت مسيئا ومذنبا

    فلي حسن ظن فيك إنك تسترني

    For although I have been a wrongdoer and a sinner,

    I have good hope in You: surely You will conceal my faults.

  6. فانك أظهرت الجميل وزدتني

    باشيا حسان لم تكن فيّ أومني

    For You have revealed the beautiful and enriched me

    With lovely things that were neither in me nor from me.

  7. فيارب عاملني بفضلك واهدني

    بمنك واغفرلي بجودك واجبرني

    So, Lord, deal with me by Your grace and guide me,

    By Your favor; forgive me through Your generosity, and mend me.

  8. واختم لنا بالخير عند مماتنا

    ولا بذنوبي يا إلهي تؤاخذني

    And grant us a good end at the time of our death,

    And do not hold me to account for my sins, O my God.

  9. وصل إلهي كل حين وساعة

    وسلم على الهادي النبي المصطفى العدني

    And send blessings, my God, at every moment and hour,

    And send peace upon the guide, the Prophet, the chosen one, al-ʿAdnī.
