وَٱلْمَقَامَ مَقَامُكَ

walmaqama maqamuka

this situation is Yours,

وَأَنَا أَدْخُلُ إِلَيْهِ أُنَاجيكَ

wa ana adkhulu ilayhi unajika

and I am entering here so as to confide to You

بِمَا أَنْتَ أَعْلَمُ بِهِ مِنِّي

things that You are more knowledgeable than I am

وَمَنْ سِرِّي وَنَجْوَايَ

wa min sirri wa najwaya

as well as You are more knowledgeable than I am as regards my secrets and my confidential speech.

اَلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ ٱلْحَنَّانِ ٱلْمَنَّانِ ٱلْمُتَطَوِّلِ

alhamdu lillahi alhannani almannani almutatawwili

All praise be to Allah, the All-benevolent, the All-favorer, the All-munificent,

ٱلَّذِي مِنْ تَطَوُّلِهِ سَهَّلَ لِي زِيَارَةَ مَوْلاَيَ بِإِحْسَانِهِ

alladhi min tatawwulihi sahhala li ziyarata mawlaya bi'ihsanihi

Who has not made me banned from visiting him,

وَلاَ عَنْ وِلاَيَتِهِ مَدْفُوعاً

wa la `an wilayatihi madfu`an

and Who has not included me with those who are prevented from being loyal to his (Divinely commissioned) leadership;

بَلْ تَطَوَّلَ وَمَنَحَ

bal tatawwala wa manaha

rather, He has bestowed upon me and donated me (this favor).

اَللَّهُمَّ كَمَا مَنَنْتَ عَلَيَّ بِمَعْرِفَتِهِ

وَأَدْخِلْنِي ٱلْجَنَّةَ بِشَفَاعَتِهِ

wa adkhilni aljannata bishafa`atihi

and allow me to enter Paradise by means of his intercession,

يَا أَرْحَمَ ٱلرَّاحِمِينَ
