Harful Khaa · حَرْفُ الْخَاءِ

خَدِيمٌ ثَوَى بِالْبَابِ والْحُبُّ رَاسِـــخُ
بِقَلْبٍ لَهُ وَهْـــــوَ الْمَدَائِـــحَ نَاسِــخُ

Khadīmun thawā bil-bābi wal-ḥubbu rāsikhu
Bi-qalbin lahu wa-huwa al-madā’iḥa nāsikhu

A servant has stationed himself at the gate, with a love that is firmly rooted within a heart that is ever-composing his praises.

خِتَـــــامَ نِظَـــــامٍ لِلنُّـبُـــوَّةِ فَاقْبَلَـــنْ
مُحِبًّا مُسِيئًا قَـــدْ أَتَى وَهْوَ صَـارِخُ

Khitāma niẓāmin lil-nubuwwati fa-qbalan
Muḥibban musī’an qad atā wa-huwa ṣārikhu

O Seal of the Order of Prophethood, accept a lover who has erred and has come crying out to you.

خِصَالُ الْمَعَالِي قَدْ حَوَيْتَ جَمِيعَ مَا
تَفَرَّقَ فِي الْأَرْسَالِ فَالْمَجْــدُ شَامِـخُ

Khiṣālu al-ma‘ālī qad ḥawayta jamī‘a mā
Tafarraqa fī al-arsāli fal-majdu shāmikhu

You have encompassed all the noble qualities that were dispersed among the previous Messengers, for your glory is towering.

عَلَيْـــكَ صَـــلاَةُ اللّٰهِ ثُــــمَّ سَلاَمُـــهُ
بِهَا كُلُّ شَأْنِي لِلشُّـــــؤُونِ نَوَاسِــخُ

‘Alayka ṣalātu Allāhi thumma salāmuhu
Bihā kullu sha’nī lil-shu’ūni nawāsikhu

Upon you be the prayer of Allah and then His peace; through it, may my current state abrogate all other affairs.

عَلَيْــــكَ صَـــلاَةُ اللّٰهِ ثُــمَّ سَلاَمُـــهُ
وَآلٍ وَصَحْبٍ حُبُّهُمْ فِيـكَ رَاسِـخُ

‘Alayka ṣalātu Allāhi thumma salāmuhu
Wa-ālin wa-ṣaḥbin ḥubbuhum fīka rāsikhu

Upon him be the prayer of Allah and then His peace, and upon the family and companions whose love for you is firmly rooted.
