Praise belongs to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds. Allah is enough for me and the best Protector. There is no power nor strength except by Allah, the High, the Immense. O Allah, I am free myself of my power and strength in favour of Your power and Your strength. I draw near to you by the prayer on our maser Mohammed, your slave, Prophet and Messenger, the Master of the Messengers, may Allah Almighty bless him and grant him and all of them peace, in obedience to Your command, affirming him, loving him, yearning for him and respecting his worth and the fact that he (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) is worthy of that. Accept it from us by Your grace and make me one of Your righteous slaves. Give me success in reading it always by his rank with You. May Allah bless our master Mohammed and his family and all his Companions. 

Peace be upon a grave which is visited from afar.

   Peace be upon the Rawda where Mohammed is.

Peace be upon the one who visited his Lord in the night

    and reached the desire in every aim.

Peace be upon the one who said to the lizard, "Who am I?"

   and it replied, "The Messenger of Allah. You are Mohammed."

Peace be upon the one who is buried in a good land

    and who the All-Merciful singled out for excellence and glory.

A Prophet to whom Allah have good and radiance.

   Good fortune to the person who visits the graves of Mohammed!

If there is any riding making for Madina,

   convey my greeting to the beloved Mohammed.

His excellent meadow is my hope and my desire,

   and it contains the healing of my heart and its rest and repose.

If it is far from me and it rare that it can be visited

    and so its picture is the best image with me.

I run my eyes over the beauty of its meadow

    and by it there is solace for my core, my secret and my heart.

Here I am, O Qutb of all the words.

    I kiss it, yearning to heal my illness.

May Allah bless the Qutb of existence, Mohammed,

   with a prayer which effaces every mistake of mine.
