[Rida]

His fragrance has caused the buds of my heart to blossom
Whichever road he has travelled, he has brought it to life!

When his eyes have surged forth, ocean-like, with mercy
they have extinguished those on fire, brought smiles to those in tears

What is my heart alone?--however much its harm
You have brought back to life the living dead!

May I die for him! However much sorrow someone is in
When he is remembered, all one's sorrows are forgotten!

Now even mendicants hope to obtain something from us
Since we have lain our mattresses at the door of that Generous One!

During the Ascension when he passed the angelic hosts
They began to salute him and lowered their flags!

Whether you let me cross or not, it is now up to your pleasure
I have left my ship in your hands, have lifted the anchor!

Say this much to the Bridegroom: Beloved, halt your steed awhile
The wedding guests are in difficulty--their way strewn with thorns!

Allah! Have the fires of Gehenna still not frozen over?
Beloved Mustafa has wept oceans of tears!

If someone has asked a mere drop from my gracious Master
He has given him rivers in return, whole oceans instead!

Congratulations on being crowned king of Verse, Raza!
Wherever you have gone, coins have been struck in your name!
