بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
bismillahi alrrahmani alrrahimi
In the Name of Allah, the All-beneficent, the All-merciful
إِلٰهِي لَيْسَ لِي وَسِيلَةٌ إِلَيْكَ إِلاَّ عَوَاطِفُ رَأْفَتِكَ
ilahi laysa li wasilatun ilayka illa `awatifu ra'fatika
My God, I have no mediation with You but the tender acts of Your clemency,
وَلاَ لِي ذَرِيعَةٌ إِلَيْكَ إِلاَّ عَوَارِفُ رَحْمَتِكَ
wa la li dhari`atun ilayka illa `awarifu rahmatika
nor any way to come to You but the gentle favors of Your mercy
وَشَفَاعَةُ نَبِيِّكَ نَبِيِّ ٱلرَّحْمَةِ
wa shafa`atu nabiyyika nabiyyi arrahmati
and the intercession of Your Prophet, the prophet of mercy,
وَمُنْقِذِ ٱلأُمَّةِ مِنَ ٱلْغُمَّةِ
wa munqidhi al-ummati min alghummati
who rescued the community from confusion.
فَٱجْعَلْهُمَا لِي سَبَباً إِلَىٰ نَيْلِ غُفْرَانِكَ
faj`alhuma li sababan ila nayli ghufranika
Make these two my tie to attaining Your forgiveness
وَصَيِّرْهُمَا لِي وُصْلَةً إِلَىٰ ٱلْفَوْزِ بِرِضْوَانِكَ
wa sayyirhuma li wuslatan ila alfawzi biridwanika
and let them take me to triumph through Your good pleasure!
وَقَدْ حَلَّ رَجَائِي بِحَرَمِ كَرَمِكَ
wa qad halla raja'i biharami karamika
My hope has dismounted in the sacred precinct of Your generosity,
وَحَطَّ طَمَعِي بِفِنَاءِ جُودِكَ
wa hatta tama`i bifina'i judika
my craving has alighted in the courtyard of Your munificence.
fahaqqiq fika amali
So, actualize my expectation from You,
وَٱخْتِمْ بِٱلْخَيْرِ عَمَلِي
wakhtim bilkhayri `amali
seal my works with good,
وَٱجْعَلْنِي مِنْ صَفْوَتِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَحْلَلْتَهُمْ بُحْبُوحَةَ جَنَّتِكَ
waj`alni min safwatika alladhina ahlaltahum buhbuhata jannatika
and place me among Your selected friends, those whom You have set down in the midst of Your Garden,
وَبَوَّأْتَهُمْ دَارَ كَرَامَتِكَ
wa bawwa'tahum dara karamatika
and settled in the abode of Your honor,
وَأَقْرَرْتَ أَعْيُنَهُمْ بِٱلنَّظَرِ إِلَيْكَ يَوْمَ لِقَائِكَ
wa aqrarta a`yunahum binnazari ilayka yawma liqa'ika
whose eyes You have gladdened by gazing upon You on the day of meeting You,
وَأَوْرَثْتَهُمْ مَنَازِلَ ٱلصِّدْقِ فِي جَوَارِكَ
wa awrathtahum manazila assidqi fi jiwarika
and whom You have made heirs to the sure stations in Your neighborhood!
يَا مَنْ لاَ يَفِدُ ٱلْوَافِدُونَ عَلَىٰ أَكْرَمَ مِنْهُ
ya man la yafidu alwafiduna `ala akrama minhu
O He none more generous than whom is reached by the reachers
وَلاَ يَجِدُ ٱلْقَاصِدُونَ أَرْحَمَ مِنْهُ
wa la yajidu alqasiduna arhama minhu
and none more merciful than whom is found by the aimers!
يَا خَيْرَ مَنْ خَلا بِهِ وَحِيدٌ
ya khayra man khala bihi wahidun
O Best of those with whom the lonely are alone!
وَيَا أَعْطَفَ مَنْ آوَىٰ إِلَيْهِ طَرِيدٌ
wa ya a`tafa man awa ilayhi taridun
O most Tender of those with whom outcasts seek haven!
إِلَىٰ سَعَةِ عَفْوِكَ مَدَدْتُ يَدِي
ila sa`ati `afwika madadtu yadi
Toward the expanse of Your pardon have I extended my hand,
وَبِذَيْلِ كَرَمِكَ أَعْلَقْتُ كَفِّي
wa bidhayli karamika a`laqtu kaffi
upon the skirt of Your generosity have I fastened my grasp!
فَلاَ تُولِنِي ٱلْحِرْمَانَ
fala tulini alhirmana
Show me no deprivation
وَلاَ تُبْلِنِي بِٱلْخَيْبَةِ وَٱلْخُسْرَانِ
wa la tublini bilkhaybati walkhusrani
and afflict me not with disappointment and loss!
ya sami`a addu`a'i
O Hearer of supplications!
يَا أَرْحَمَ ٱلرَّاحِمِينَ
ya arhama arrahimina
O Most Merciful of the merciful!
