1. فديتُ علياً إمام الورى

    سِراجُ البريةِ مأوى التقى

    I would give my life for Ali, the leader of humankind,

    The lamp of creation, the refuge of piety,

  2. وصيَّ الرسولِ وزوجَ البَتُول

    إمامَ البريةِ شمسَ الضُّحى

    The Messenger’s legatee and husband of the Pure One,

    The leader of creation, the midmorning sun.

  3. تصدَّقَ خاتِمَهُ راكعاً

    فأحسِن بفعلِ إمامِ الوَرى

    He gave his ring in charity while bowing in prayer.

    How fine, then, the deed of the leader of humankind!

  4. ففضَّلَهُ اللَهُ ربُّ العباد

    وأنزَلَ في شأنِهِ هل أتى

    So God, Lord of all servants, favored him,

    And revealed “Has There Come” concerning him.
