1. يا اِبنَ الاِماجِد لا تَخش الرَدى أَبَدا

    وَحَق جَدّك ما هذا المَقام سَدا

    O son of noble forebears, never fear death.

    And by your grandfather's honor, this station is not in vain.

  2. وَلا يَهولنك من أَعداك ما فَعَلوا

    كَم سَيد بَغضته قَومه حسدا

    And let nothing your enemies have done alarm you.

    Many a lord has been hated by his people out of envy.

  3. أَما تَرى جَدّك المُختار كانَ لَهُ

    مِن قَومِهِ حَسد يُؤذونَه وَعدا

    Do you not see that your grandfather, the Chosen One, had

    among his people envious men who harmed him, and enemies?

  4. أَنتَ اِبن سيط رَسول اللَهِ كَيفَ تَرى

    ضيما وَربك قَد أَعطى لَكَ المَدَدا

    You are descended from God's Messenger's [grandson]; how could you suffer

    injustice, when your Lord has granted you aid?

  5. وَالمَجدُ مجدُكَ يا اِبنَ الاِكرَمين فَمن

    يُنكِر عَلاك عِنادا فليمت كَمدا

    And glory is yours, O son of the noblest; whoever

    stubbornly denies your eminence—let him die of grief.

  6. اِبشِر يِعُمر مَديد لا يُكَدّره

    سوء وَدَهر سَعيد لَيسَ فيهِ رَدى

    Rejoice in a long life that will not be marred

    by misfortune, and in a happy age free of ruin.

  7. فَكَم لا سَلافك الاِمجاد من مدد

    غَدا يقصر عَن شَأواه كل مدى

    For how much aid your glorious forebears have received—

    every span has come to fall short of its reach!

  8. وَكَم يَد لك بِالمَعروف قَد عَرَفت

    وَكَم فَخار كَضوء الفَرقَدَين بَدا

    And how many of your benefactions have become known,

    and how much glory has shone like the light of the two Farqad stars!

  9. وَكَم لَكُم يا بَني الزَهراء مِن شَرَف

    عالَ بِهِ اللَهُ في القُرآن قَد شَهِدا

    And how much honor is yours, O sons of al-Zahra—

    lofty honor, to which God has borne witness in the Qur'an!

  10. مَكارِمَ قَدّر المَولى الكَريم بِها

    لَكُم فَأَنتُم بِها صِرتُم بُحور نَدى

    Noble virtues the Generous Lord has ordained

    for you; through them you have become seas of generosity.

  11. يا أَحمَد العَصر طِب نَفساً فَاِنَّكَ مِن

    قَوم اِذا وَصَفوا كانوا هُم السَعدا

    O Ahmad of this age, be at ease in spirit, for you come from

    a people who, when described, are the fortunate ones.

  12. اللَهُ شَرّ فكم قَدما وَطهركم

    وَخَصَّكُم يا بَني الزَهرا بِكُل هُدى

    God [honored you] long ago and purified you,

    and favored you, O sons of al-Zahra, with every form of guidance.

  13. مَن ذا يُفاخركم أَو من يُشابهكُم

    وَمَدحكم في كِتاب اللَهِ قَد وَرَدا

    Who can vie with you in glory, or who can resemble you,

    when praise of you has appeared in God's Book?

  14. اللَهُ أَعطاكُم يا آلَ فاطِمَة

    فَضيلَة في العُلا لَم يُعطِها أَحَدا

    God has granted you, O family of Fatimah,

    a distinction in eminence that He has granted no one else.

  15. أَنتُم مُلوك عَلى كُل الوَرى وَلَكُم

    يا آلَ طه لواء المَجد قَد عقدا

    You are kings over all creation, and for you,

    O family of Taha, the banner of glory has been raised.

  16. هذا لِساني قَصير عَن مَديحُكُم

    لا أَستَطيع اِلَيهِ ان أَمدّ يَدا

    This tongue of mine falls short of praising you;

    I cannot extend a hand to reach it.

  17. وَكَيفَ أَمدحكُم وَاللَه يَمدحكم

    مَدحا مدا الدهر يبتلي ذِكره أَبَدا

    And how can I praise you when God praises you

    with praise whose remembrance is forever [recited] throughout time?

  18. لكِنّ غايَة أَمري اِنَّني رَجُل

    بِحُبّ آل النَبي أَرجو النَجاةَ غَدا

    Yet all I can claim is that I am a man

    who, through love of the Prophet's family, hopes for salvation tomorrow.
