وقد أتانا خاتم الرسالة..
And indeed, the seal of prophets has come to us,
 بكل ماجاؤا به من حاله
with everything that they (the awliya') came with in terms of their states,
فعمَّ كُلَّ الخلق بالدلالة ..
and so the entire creation was filled by him with guidance,
 وأشرقت مناهج الكمال
and the paths of perfection had thus risen above us.
فكلُهُ فضلٌ أتى ورحمة.
It was all a bounty which came, and a mercy,
. وكله حُكْمُ هدىً وحكمه
it was all guidance in commandments and wisdom,
وهو إمام كل ذي مهمة..
he is the leader of all those of importance,
وقدوةٌ في سائر الخصال
and the exemplar in every character trait.
فما مضى حتى أقام الدين ..
He did not go until he had established the religion,
 وصار سهلاً واضحاً مبينا
and it became easy, clear and self-evident,
فلم تخــف أمَّــتُهُ فتــونا
from then on, his nation never feared tribulation,
.. بل عُصِموا في الجمع عن ضلال
nay, indeed they were made immune, as a whole, from misguidance.
