O my master, O Messenger of Allah, O my hope,

O you in whom I seek refuge when my footsteps falter

Through you I was guided to faith, and thus,

The blessings of your bounty have continued to reach me

May the Lord of creation send blessings upon you as long as doves coo,

And as long as continuous rains fall from the clouds
