wa’ teraafenaa be-zonoobenaa sha-fee-a’n elaa a’fweka

and our confession of our sins is intercessor towards Your pardon,

وَ ارْزُقْنَا الْعَوْدَ اِلٰی زِیَارَتِہٖ ثُمَّ الْعَوْدَ اِلَیْہِ

and grant us the opportunity to visit again and again for his visitation.

بِرَحْمَتِكَ یَا اَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِیْنَ

By Your mercy, O Most Merciful of all. O Allah !

اَللّٰہُمَّ لَا تَجْعَلْہُ اٰخِرَ الْعَہْدِ مَنَّا لِزِیَارَۃِ سَیِّدَنَا

allaahumma laa taj-a’lho aakheral a’hde minnaa le-zeyaarate sayyedanaa

Do not make this our last visitation of our master

وَ اِمَامِنَا الْمَفْرُوْضِ طَاعَتِہٖ عَلَیْنَا

wa emaamanal mafrooze taa-a’tehi a’laynaa

اِنَّكَ ذُوْ الْفَضْلِ الْعَظِیْمِ وَ الْمَنِّ الْجَسِیْمِ

innaka zool fazlil a’zeeme wal mannil jaseeme

for You verily the Lord of great favouring and plentiful conferral.

وَ صَلَّی اللہُ عَلٰی سَیِّدِنَا مُحَمَّدٍ وَ اٰلِہِ الطَّاہِرِیْنَ

wa sallal laaho a’laa sayyedenaa mohammadin wa aalehit taahereen.

And blessings of Allah be upon our master Muhammad and his pure progeny.
