Sol 6.1

  1. العيد صحة مولانا العليم علي

    وبرء جثمانه الزاكي من العلل

    The feast is the health of our learned master Ali,

    And his pure body's recovery from ailments.

  2. وإن يوماً سقى كأس الشفاء به

    لذاك أسعد عيد للأنام ولي

    And indeed, the day on which he was given the cup of healing—

    That is surely the happiest feast to come to humankind.

  3. ومنذ ألبسه الرحمن عافيةٍ

    تبقى عليه بقاء الدهر لم تزل

    And since the All-Merciful clothed him in well-being

    That stays with him as long as time endures, never ceasing,

  4. أمسى الوجود من الأفراح مبتهجاً

    نشوان يسحب ذيل الشارب الثمل

    Existence has become jubilant with joy,

    Intoxicated, trailing the hem of a drunken drinker.

  5. والدين أضحى قرير العين مبتسماً

    يفتر عن طالع مثل الصباح جلي

    And the faith has become glad-eyed and smiling,

    Its smile revealing a rising light as clear as morning.

  6. أنعم به من فتىً أمست فضائله

    في الناس أشهر من نار على جبل

    How splendid a young man he is! His virtues have become

    More renowned among people than a fire on a mountain.

  7. وعالم عامل ما زر مئزره

    إلا على الحسنيين العلم والعمل

    And a scholar who acts, who has never girded his waistcloth

    Except over the two excellences: knowledge and action.

  8. وذي تقي بالنهى والفضل ملتحف

    وبالفخار وبرد المجد مشتمل

    And a man of piety, wrapped in intellect and virtue,

    And cloaked in honor and the mantle of glory.

  9. من معشر شرف اللَه الوجود بهم

    أجل وهم علة الإيجاد في الأزل

    From a people through whom God ennobled existence—

    Indeed, they are creation's cause in beginningless eternity.

  10. وقادة راح عمر الدهر دينهم

    يسمو على سائر الأديان والملل

    And leaders whose faith, throughout the life of time,

    Has risen above all other religions and creeds.

  11. أئمة ضربوا للمجد أخبية

    أرست دعائمها الطولى على زحل

    Imams who pitched tents for glory,

    Whose tallest pillars were anchored upon Saturn.

  12. بهم وثقت فلا أخشى الخطوب إذا

    جاشت علي وقلت عندها حيلي

    In them I have placed my trust, so I fear no calamities when

    They surge against me and my resources then dwindle.

  13. يا وارثاً في البرايا فضل مجدهم

    وموضحاً نهج ماسنوا من السبل

    O heir, among creation, to the excellence of their glory,

    And you who make plain the course of the paths they laid down,

  14. لك الهناء بعيد قد لبست به

    جلباب عافيةٍ من أفخر الحلل

    Congratulations to you on a feast at which you have donned

    A robe of well-being, among the finest garments.

  15. وأسلم مدى الدهر في أمن وفي دعةٍ

    ممنعاً من صروف الحادث الجلل

    And remain safe for all time, in security and ease,

    Protected from the vicissitudes of grievous calamity,

  16. ممتعاً بشقيقيك الذين هما

    هما رضيعا لبان العلم والعمل

    Blessed with your two brothers, who are

    The very two nurslings of the milk of knowledge and action:

  17. محمد منبع الفضل التقي أخو المج

    د الأثيل أمان الخائف الوجل

    Muhammad, fountain of virtue, the pious, brother to

    Deep-rooted glory, refuge for the fearful and trembling;

  18. وواحد الدهر مولا بالحسين ومن

    أضحى من العلم والفضل الغرير على

    And the peerless man of the age, the master al-Husayn, who also

    Has risen high through knowledge and guileless virtue [wording unclear].

  19. داما ودمت من النعمى على سرر

    وفي سرور بلطف اللَه متصل

    May they both endure, and may you endure, on couches of bliss,

    And in unbroken joy through God's grace.
