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.** خَلاَ اللّٰهَ لاَ أَرْجُو سِوَاكَ وَلَوْ خُصِــصْ / لِأَنِّيَ مَخْصُوصٌ وَأَنْتَ الَّذِي خَصَصْ

_Khalā-llāha lā arjū siwāka wa-law khuṣiṣ / li-anniya makhṣūṣun wa anta-l ladhī khaṣaṣ_

Except for Allah, I hope in none but you, even if I were singled out; for I am specially designated, and you are the one who designated.

**2.** فَمَا فِي سِوَى رَبِّ الْبَرِيَّـــــةِ مَطْمَــعٌ / وَأَنْتَ عَلَى كُلِّ الْبَرَايَا الَّذِي حَرَصْ

_Fa-mā fī siwā rabbi-l bariyyati maṭmaʿun / wa anta ʿalā kulli-l barāyā-l ladhī ḥaraṣ_

There is no object of desire in other than the Lord of creation; and you are the one who has shown the most care for all of mankind.

**3.** فَأَحْمَــدُ بَــابُ اللّٰهِ وَالْقَصْــدُ نَحْـــوَهُ / وَبَلَّغَنَا التَّنْزِيلَ مَـــا زَادَ مَا نَقَــصْ

_Fa-Aḥmadu bābu-llāhi wa-l qaṣdu naḥwahu / wa ballaghanā-t tanzīla mā zāda mā naqaṣ_

For Ahmad is the door to Allah and the goal is toward him; and he conveyed the Revelation to us, neither increasing nor decreasing it.

**4.** وَمَا نَامَ حَتَّى جَاءَنَا الدِّينُ كَامِـــلاً / وَلِلَّهِ حَمْدٌ مَا يَعُـــمُّ وَمَــا يَخُــصْ

_Wa mā nāma ḥattā jā’anā-d dīnu kāmilā / wa lillāhi ḥamdun mā yaʿummu wa mā yakhaṣ_

He did not sleep until the religion came to us complete; and to Allah belongs praise, both general and specific.

**5.** لِرَبِّي عَلَيْــــهِ الْحَمْــــدُ رَبِّـــي وَإِنَّــهُ / لَهُ الْحَمْدُ فِي هَادِي الْبَرِيَّةِ حِينَ خَصْ

_Li-rabbī ʿalayhi-l ḥamdu rabbī wa innahu / lahu-l ḥamdu fī hādī-l bariyyati ḥīna khaṣ_

To my Lord be praise for him—my Lord—and indeed, to Him belongs praise regarding the Guide of creation when He specifically chose him.

**6.** لَهُ الْحَمْدُ فِي الْأُولَى وَالْأُخْرَى وَإِنَّـــــهُ / لَهُ الْحَمْدُ فِي كُلِّ الشُّؤُونِ وَفِي الْقَصَصْ

_Lahu-l ḥamdu fī-l ūlā wa-l ukhrā wa innahu / lahu-l ḥamdu fī kulli-sh shu’ūni wa fī-l qaṣaṣ_

To Him belongs praise in the first life and the last, and indeed, to Him belongs praise in all affairs and in the stories.

**7.** تَنَـــوَّرْتُ أَسْــــرَارَ التَّجَلِّــي بِغَيْبِـــهِ / وَلَسْتُ كَسَكْـــرَانٍ تَغَـــرَّدَ أَوْ رَقَصْ

_Tanawwartu asrāra-t tajallī bi-ghaybihi / wa lastu ka-sakrāna tagharrada aw raqaṣ_

I was enlightened by the secrets of Divine Manifestation through his unseen; and I am not like a drunkard who chirps or dances.

**8.** وَلَمْ يَكُ فِي الْإِمْكَــانِ أَبْدَعَ مِنْــــكَ يَا / مُحَمَّدُ خَيْرَ النَّاسِ مَنْ نُورُهُ خَلَـــصْ

_Wa lam yaku fī-l imkāni abdaʿa minka yā / Muḥammadu khayra-n nāsi man nūruhu khalaṣ_

There was never in the realm of possibility anyone more wonderful than you, O Muhammad, the best of people, whose light is pure.

**9.** عَلَيْـــــــهِ صَـــــلاَةُ اللّٰهِ ثُـــمَّ سَلاَمُــهُ / تَقِينِي جَمِيعَ الشَّرِّ وَالسُّقْمِ وَالْبَـــرَصْ

_ʿAlayhi ṣalātu-llāhi thumma salāmuhu / taqīnī jamīʿa-sh sharri wa-s suqmi wa-l baraṣ_

Upon him be the blessings of Allah and then His peace; may they protect me from all evil, sickness, and vitiligo.

**10.** عَلَيْــــهِ مَـــعَ الْآلِ الْكِرَامِ وَصَحْبِـــهِ / صَلاَةٌ وَتَسْلِيمٌ عُمُومًا وَمَا خَصَـــصْ

_ʿAlayhi maʿa-l āli-l kirāmi wa ṣaḥbihi / ṣalātun wa taslīmun ʿumūman wa mā khaṣaṣ_

Upon him, along with the noble Family and his Companions, be blessings and peace, generally and specifically.
