From [Ad-Dawaawiinu s-Sitta · الدواوين الست](https://qasaaid.zayfir.app/app/qasaaid/691f292bc02b144934a4ec1f) by [Sheikh Ibrahim Nyass](https://qasaaid.zayfir.app/app/authors/69172463686829cc1d041df5)

**1.** طَحَا بِيَ شَوْقِي لِلْأَمِيــنِ وَأَطْــرَبُ / وَمَا شَاقَنِي غِيدٌ بِذِي الشَّيْبِ تَلْعَبُ

_Ṭaḥā biya shawqī lil-Amīni wa-aṭrabu / Wa-mā shāqanī ghīdun bi-dhī al-shaybi tal‘abu_

My longing for the Trustworthy one has carried me away and I am filled with joy, for fair maidens who play with the gray-haired no longer move me.

**2.** تَيَقَّنْــتُ أَنَّ اللَّهَ كَـــــانَ وَلَمْ يَـــزَلْ / وَأَنَّـــكَ مَحْبُــــوبٌ لَدَيْـــهِ مُقَــرَّبُ

_Tayaqqantu anna Allāha kāna wa-lam yazal / Wa-annaka maḥbūbun ladayhi muqarrabu_

I have become certain that Allah was and ever shall be, and that you are a beloved one, brought near into His presence.

**3.** وَأَنَّـــكَ هَــــادٍ لِلْخَلاَئِـــقِ مُرْشِــدٌ / وَأَنَّـــكَ هَــــادٍ لِلْإِلَــهِ ، مُحَبَّــــبُ

_Wa-annaka hādin lil-khalā’iqi murshidun / Wa-annaka hādin lil-ilāhi muḥabbabu_

And that you are a guide for all creatures, a spiritual counselor, and that you are a guide toward God, most beloved.

**4.** وَأَنَّــكَ لِلْأَكْـــوَانِ نُورٌ وَرَحْمَــةٌ / وَإِنِّي مَـــلاَذِي وَالْمُهَيْمِــنِ مُذْنِـبُ

_Wa-annaka lil-akwāni nūrun wa-raḥmatun / Wa-innī malādhī wal-muhaymini mudhnibu_

And that you are a light and a mercy for the universes, while I—by the Protector—am a sinner seeking refuge.

**5.** عَلَيْهِ صَـــــلاَةُ اللَّهِ ثُـــــمَّ سَلاَمُـــهُ / سَلاَمٌ لَدَى خَيْرِ الْخَلاَئِـــقِ مُطْرِبُ

_‘Alayhi ṣalātu Allāhi thumma salāmuhu / Salāmun lada khayri al-khalā’iqi muṭribu_

Upon him be the prayer of Allah and then His peace, a peace in the presence of the best of creatures that stirs the soul.

**6.** عَلَيْهِ مَعَ الْآلِ الْكِــرَامِ وَصَحْبِـــهِ / صَلاَةٌ وَتَسْلِيمٌ مِنَ الْمِسْكِ أَطْيَـــبُ

_‘Alayhi ma‘a al-āli al-kirāmi wa-ṣaḥbihi / Ṣalātun wa-taslīmun mina al-miski aṭyabu_

Upon him, along with the noble family and his companions, be a prayer and salutation more fragrant than musk.
