TRANSLATION
1) Thanks be to the One to [whom all] express gratitude
And [the One who] spoke to Ms and chose
Muammad
Then bestow prayers and greetings of peace
Upon the best Messenger who guided and taught
And to his Family, Companions, and those who guide
us
2) We begin with His name and through Him we start
Were we to worship other than Him, we would be of
the wretched
How great is the Lord and beloved [His] religion,
And how great is Muammad our guide!
Were it not for Him [God] we would not have existed
or remained [living].
3) O God, were it not for You, we would not have been
guided.
Nor would we have given in charity or prayed.
So put serenity in our [hearts]
And make our feet firm if we are confronted
We are of those who have come to You as Muslims
