displaying thereby His power, which nothing can render incapable though it be great,
بِقُدْرَتِهِ الَّتِي لاَ تَعْجِزُ عَنْ شَيْء وَ إنْ عَظُمَ

and nothing can escape though it be subtle.
وَ لا يَفُوتُهَا شَيءٌ وَإنْ لَطُفَ،

the key to blessing,
وَ مِفْتَاحِ الْبَرَكَةِ

14
who wearied his soul for Thy affairs,
كَمَا نَصَبَ لاَِمْرِكَ نَفْسَهُ

15
exposed his body to detested things for Thy sake,
وَ عَرَّضَ فِيْكَ لِلْمَكْرُوهِ بَدَنَهُ

sent far those close because of their denial,
وَاقصَى الادْنَيْنَ عَلَى جُحُـودِهِمْ
19
20

وَ والَى فِيكَ الابْعَدِينَ
21
22

وَعَادى فِيكَ الاقْرَبِينَ
22
23
made his soul persevere in delivering Thy message,
وَأدْأبَ نَفْسَهُ فِي تَبْلِيغِ رِسَالَتِكَ
23
24
tired it in summoning to Thy creed,
وَأَتْعَبَهَا بِالدُّعآءِ إلَى مِلَّتِكَ
24
25
busied it in counselling those worthy of Thy summons,
وَشَغَلَهَا بِالنُّصْحِ لاَِهْلِ دَعْوَتِكَ
25
26
migrated to the land of exile
وَهَاجَرَ إلَى بِلاَدِ الْغُرْبَةِ
26
27
and the place of remoteness from the home of his saddlebags,
وَمحَلِّ النَّأيِ عَنْ مَوْطِنِ رَحْلِهِ
27
28
the walkway of his feet, the ground of his birth,
وَمَوْضِـعِ رِجْلِهِ وَمَسْقَطِ رَأسِهِ
28
29
and the intimate abode of his soul, desiring to exalt Thy religion
وَمَأنَسِ نَفْسِهِ إرَادَةً مِنْهُ لاعْزَازِ دِيْنِكَ
29
30
and seeking help against those who disbelieved in Thee,
واسْتِنْصَاراً عَلَى أَهْلِ الْكُفْرِ بِكَ
30
31
until what he attempted against Thy enemies went well with him
حَتّى اسْتَتَبَّ لَهُ مَا حَاوَلَ فِي أَعْدَائِكَ
31
32
and what he arranged for Thy friends was accomplished.
وَاسْتَتَمَّ لَهُ مَا دَبَّرَ فِي أوْلِيآئِكَ
32
33
He rose up against them seeking victory through Thine aid,
فَنَهَدَ إلَيْهِمْ مُسْتَفْتِحاً بِعَوْنِكَ
33
34
becoming strong in spite of his weakness with Thy help.
وَمُتَقَوِّياً عَلَى ضَعْفِهِ بِنَصْرِكَ
34
35
He fought against them in the centre of their cities
فَغَزَاهُمْ فِي عُقْرِ دِيَارِهِمْ
35
36
and attacked them in the midst of their dwellings,
وَهَجَمَ عَلَيْهِمْ فِي بُحْبُوحَةِ قَرَارِهِمْ
36
37
until Thy command prevailed,
حَتّى ظَهَر أَمْرُكَ
37
38
and Thy word rose up, though the idolaters were averse.
وَعَلَتْ كَلِمَتُكَ وَلَوْ كَرِهَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ
38
39
O God, so raise him, because of his labours for Thy sake,
اللَهُمَّ فَارْفَعْهُ بِمَا كَدَحَ فِيكَ
39
40
to the highest degree of Thy Garden,
إلَى الدَّرَجَةِ الْعُلْيَا مِنْ جَنَّتِكَ
40
41
that none may equal him in station,
حَتَّى لاَ يُسَاوَى فِي مَنْزِلَة
41
42
none may match him in level,
وَلا يُكَاْفَأَ فِي مَرْتَبَة
42
43
and no angel brought nigh or prophet sent out may parallel him in Thy sight.
وَلاَ يُوَازِيَهُ لَدَيْكَ مَلَكٌ مُقَرَّبٌ وَلا نبيٌّ مُرْسَلٌ
43
44
And inform him concerning his Household the pure
وَعَرِّفْهُ فِي أهْلِهِ الطّاهِرِينَ
44
45
and his community the faithful of an excellent intercession,
وَاُمَّتِهِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ مِنْ حُسْنِ الشَّفَاعَةِ
45
46
greater than what Thou hast promised him! O Keeper of promises!
أجَلَّ مَا وَعَدْتَهُ يَا نَافِذَ الْعِدَةِ
46
47
O Faithful to Thy word! O He who changes evil deeds into manifold good deeds!
وَافِىَ الْقَوْلِ يَا مُبَدِّلَ السّيِّئات بِأضْعَافِهَا مِنَ الْحَسَنَاتِ
47
48
Thou art of bounty abounding!
إنَّكَ ذُو الْفَضْلِ الْعَظِيمِ الْجَوَادُ اَلْكَرِيمُ
