إِلَهِيْ عَظُمَ الْبَلَاءُ وَبَرِحَ الْخَفَاءُ
O my Lord! The calamity has aggravated; the absence prolonged;
وَانْكَشَفَ الْغِطَاءُ وَانْقَطَعَ الرَّجَاءُ ،
The curtain of modesty has been lifted; hope has been curtailed;
وَضَاقَتِ الْأَرْضُ وَمُنِعَتِ السَّمَاءُ
The earth has been narrow; and sky has been denied.
وَأَنْتَ الْمُسْتَعَانُ وَإِلَيْكَ الْمُشْتَكَي
And You are the One from whom help is sought and complaints are made
وَ عَلَيْكَ الْمُعَوَّلُ فِيْ الشِّدَّةِ وَالرَّخَاءِ،
And in You we trust in the times of difficulty.
اَللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَي مُحَمَّدٍ وَّآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ
O Allah! Send blessings upon Muhammad (S) and the progeny of Muhammad (S),
أُوْلِي الْأَمْرِ الَّذِيْنَ فَرَضْتَ عَلَيْنَا طَا عَتَهُمْ
The possessors of authority whose obedience you have enjoined upon us
وَ عَرَّفْتَنَا بِذَالِكَ مَنْزِلَتَهُمْ ، فَفَّرِجْ عَنَّا بِحَقِّهِمْ فَرَجاً عَاجِلاً قَرِيْباً كَلَمْحِ الْبَصَرِ أَوْ هُوَ أَقْرَبُ
And by that made us aware of their position. Then make open for us, by their truth, an immediate opening, immediate as a wink or sooner.
يَامُحَمَّدُ يَاعَلِيُّ يَاعَلِيُّ يَامُحَمَّدُ
O Muhammad! O ‘Ali! O ‘Ali! O Muhammad!
ِكْفِيَانِيْ فَإِنَّكُمَا كَافِيَانِ وَ انْصُرَانِيْ فَإِنَّكُمَا نَاصِرَانِ
Suffice me both of you as both of you are sufficient.Help me—two of you—for you are my helpers.
يَامَوْلَانَا يَاصَاحِبَ الزَّمَانِ
O our Master, O Master of the Time!
اَلْغَوْثَ اَلْغَوْثَ اَلْغَوْثَ
Help! Help!
أَدْرِكْنِيْ أَدْرِكْنِيْ أَدْرِكْنِيْ
Rescue me! Rescue me! Rescue me!
اَلسَّاعَةَ اَلسَّاعَةَ اَلسَّاعَةَ
