Fi rawdatihil Husnaa munaaya wa bughyatee
Wa fihaa shifaa qalbee wa rooHee waraaHatee
To be in his most beautiful garden is my hope and desire
And in it is the healing of my heart and soul, my comfort and rest
فَإِنْ بَعُدَتْ عَنِّي وَعَزَّ مَزَارُهَا فَتِمْثَالُهَآ لَدَىَّ أَحْسَنُ صُورَةِ
Fa-in ba’udat ‘annee wa ‘azza mazaaruhaa
Fatimthaaluhaa ladayya -aHsanu sooratee
So if it becomes distant from me and visiting becomes scarce and difficult
Its depiction becomes the best of images for me Advertisement
أُنَزِّهُ طَرْفَ الْعَيْنِ فِي حُسْنِ رَوْضِهَا فَيَسْلُو بِهَا لُبِّي وَسِرِّي وَمُهْجَتِي

I make my eyes take pleasure from the beauty of its gardens
In this enjoyment my heart, secret and spirit find pleasure

So here I am, O Master of the entire worlds
I kiss it with yearning in order for it to cure my sickness
وَصَلِّ عَلَى قُطْبِ الْوُجُودِ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَاةً بِهَا تَمْحُو عَنَّا كُلِّ زَلَّةِ
Wa salli ‘alaa qutbil wujoodi MuHammadin
