كم عِشتُ والشوقُ بي
I've always been longing,

أَهْوى حبيبي النبي
In love with my Beloved Prophet

مُذْ كنتُ طفلاً صَبيّ
Since I was a little child

قلبي و رُوحي فِداه
May my heart and soul be sacrificed for his sake

بلغَ العُلى بكمالِه
He attained exaltation by his perfection

كشفَ الدُجى بِجمالِه
He dispelled darkness by his beauty

حَسُنَتْ جميعُ خِصالِه
Beauteous are all his qualities

صلُّوا عليهِ و آلِه
Benediction be on him and on his family

هو سيِّدي المُصْطفى
He is my master, the Chosen One

هو قُدوَتي وكَفَى
He is my role model and that's enough for me


هو مَن غَدا ذِكْرهُ
He is whose praise has become...

لَحنًا بِكلِّ الشِّفاهْ
A melody on all lips

CHORUS

لَو مَرَّ في مَسْمَعِي
Whenever I hear his name...

طه جرَتْ أَدْمُعِي
“Taha”, my tears begin to flow

وَفَاضَ شَوْقِي لَهُ
Ad my longing for him becomes more than I can bear

وَحَلَّ في أَضْلُعِي
And (his love) nestles deep within my being

مَلأتَ قَلبي فِدا
You filled my heart with sacrifice

وأَنَرْتَ دَرْبي هُدى
And you lightened my path with your guidance

وكُنتَ لي سَيّدي
You have always been for me, O my master...

نورًا أضاءَ المَدى
A light that illuminates the furthest horizons
