Ṣalli rabbī ʿala n-nabiyyi, shafīʿinā Aḥmad
Ṣalli rabbī ʿala n-nabiyyi, shafīʿinā Aḥmad
Tshegofatsa Morena mo Moperofeting, morapedisi wa rona Ahmed
Tshegofatsa Morena mo Moperofeting, mong wa rona Muhammad
The people that in darkness dwelt,
Batho ba ba neng ba nna mo lefifing,
A glorious light have seen
Ba bone lesedi le le phatsimang thata
God's prophet now to them hath come,
Moperofeti wa Modimo jaanong o tlile mo go bone,
Muhammad, Al-Amin
Muhammad, Al-Amin
We hail thee, Allah's Prophet true,
Re a go dumedisa, Moperofeti wa nnete wa ga Allah,
Of prophecy the seal
Sekano sa boperofeti
We read with reverence the Book,
Re bala Lokwalo ka tlotlo e kgolo,
Thou wast sent to reveal
Lo o neng wa romelwa go lo senola
For thou the burden did'st remove,
Gonne o tlositse morwalo o o imelang,
Idolatry's fell rod
Thupa e e setlhogo ya kobamelo-medingwana
And in thy day the idols fell,
Mme mo motlheng wa gago medingwana e ne ya wa,
Before the Sword of God
Fa pele ga Tšhaka ya Modimo
To bless Arabia and the world,
Go tshegofatsa Arabia le lefatshe,
Most surely thou wast raised
Ka nnete o ne wa emisiwa
We'll sing thy praises evermore,
Re tla opela dipako tsa gago ka bosakhutleng,
Our Mustafa, the praised
Mustafa wa rona, yo o rorisegang
We watch with gentle, fostering care,
Re lebaleba ka tlhokomelo e e bonolo le e e godisang,
The seed that thou hast sown
Peo e o e jetseng
And trust to hear the world declare,
Mme re tshepha go utlwa lefatshe le bolela,
God's prophet as its own
Moperofeti wa Modimo e le wa lone
