تنظيم الأكوان بعلي وسر الوجود بحيدره

The ordering of the universes is through Ali, and the secret of existence is in Haydar

تسبيح الأفلاك ابتده ونور الشمس من ناظره

The celestial spheres began with his glorification, and the sun's light is from his gaze

موسى انتخه وشگ البحر، چي صاح باسمه وعبره

Musa called upon him, and the sea split when he cried his name and crossed

بحروفه منتچيه السمه وبيده النجوم مسطره

From his letters the heavens are brought forth, and in his hand the stars are set in lines

علي علي علي علي علي علي

Ali, Ali, Ali, Ali, Ali, Ali

✦

كهف العجايب والفلق والطارق ولوح السمه

(He is) The Cave of Wonders, the splitting of dawn, the piercing star, and the tablet of heaven

ربك خلق كلشي لعلي وبلا حجاب يكلمه

Your Lord created everything for Ali, and speaks to him without a veil

كل دگه تصرخ يا علي، وكل يا علي يا فاطمة

Every heartbeat cries, "O Ali", and every "O Ali" is "O Fatima"

ما طلگت الكعبة بشر بس بعلي حامي الحمى

The Kaaba never gave birth to a human being except Ali, the protector of the sanctuary

نفس الرسول ومهجته وروحه وشريكه بالگلب

The very self of the Messenger, his lifeblood, his soul, and the one who shares his heart

يتسمى قتال العرب، چي بالحرب ما ينغلب

He is called the Slayer of the Arabs, for in battle he cannot be defeated

من عطره حبينه الهوى، وصلينه باسمه عالدرب

From his fragrance we came to love the air, and through his name we reached the right path

ترهب صفاتك يا علي، إنت السهل وإنت الصعب

Your qualities inspire awe, O Ali, you are the easy (to love) and you are the difficult (to comprehend)

Ali, Ali, Ali, Ali, Ali, Ali

وجه الله وآلاءه علي، ومن العلي اسمه ابتدأ

The Face of God and His bounties are Ali, and from al-Ali his name began

والهدم أصنام الشرك، والحارب الجن وحده

The destroyer of the idols of shirk, and the one who fought the jinn alone

يا قالع الباب التي ما تهتز بچف العدة

O Lifter of the gate that the hands of a multitude could not even shake

إنت العظيم، إنت الأسد، والكون أميره وسيده

You are the Great One, you are the Lion, and to the universe you are a master and guardian

قد قاب قوسين ودنى، نور الإله مجلله

He came within two bow-lengths and drew near, with the Light of God enveloping him

قل لا فتى إلا علي، وبس هو راعي المرجلة

Say, "There is no warrior but Ali", only he is the master of courage

خلّف سبع عالگنطرة، ومن عنده ترجف كربلا

He left behind a lion (Abbas), from whose presence Karbala trembles

آدم سجد يم حضرته، وصاح اسمه گبل البسملة

Adam prostrated in his presence and cried his name before Bismillah

Ali, Ali, Ali, Ali, Ali, Ali
