Shaykh Salih al-Ja'fari: Al-Ja'fari has hopes in loving you

Al-Ja'fari has hope in loving you

He's never dissapointed who comes to you with love and hope

Hoping for a glance from Rasool Allah because of you

That would guide the heart to understanding of ilm and action

For you are blessed lights from him

Connected to him, like the sun in simile

You are rays of the sun of the Mustafa and through him,

You became masters of all people from poor to rich

And you were in the universe a clear sign (aya)

Guiding to him those who have minds that are not fettered

O mercy on earth that is accompanied by light,

and security for those of hardship or fear

Your du'a is a balsam with which chests are healed

Like honey it is superior to the medicines of disease

And your sayings, my masters, are accompanied by musk

They guide the minds to a clear path and way

And he who distances himself, has distanced himself from happiness

And has lived in the obsessions of delusions and laziness

And we have never heard of a lover whose destiny struck him

With injustice and failure, along with aghyar (the people of otherness)

And everyone who visits you, we see him smiling,

Like the people of Paradise, occupied (ref Q 36:55) and on him a light

It shines from him when he speaks of your love

And if he comes to your dwelling places he walks in a hurry

And if he sees you in his sleep he attains his desire

And the light travels inside his body and his eyes

O masters who are a cure for the sick

and he who comes to them is cured of all defects

By Allah he is cured and you are the doors of His mercy

Because of you the du'a of the frightened is answered

You are the rain, and the bounty of Allah which He rains down

On the lovers, in every valley and every mountain

And your love, my masters, is from the bounty of our Creator

A bounty pre-ordained for the believers from pre-eternity

And love and nearness happen to souls from pre-eternity

Those who come to visit you have met you back then

He who is close to you will come to visit you

And those kept away will remain far from the house of Ali

If you were at their place, then glad tiding!

Allah has brought to be what had happened in pre-eternity

So praise is due to Allah for this love, it came to us

From Allah and love comes not from argumentation

And remember Ali when he took the initiative

In fighting the enemies at Badr, without delay

And the sword shining in his right hand, dangerous

It killed the enemies, armed with their spears and arrows

He has a roar like lions in their dens

that knocks down the enemies with terror and fright.

Look at al-Hasan the grandson who, like the sun

Has every beautiful attribute

Look at Husayn you'll find his image in your heart

Covered in lights connected to the Best of Creation

Two full moons in this universe- nay two suns!

Their light is for the people of dhikr before dawn and in the early morn

O masters, the like of whom the heart has never loved

In Paradise they are masters, and in this world, over every wali

They are masters of all people because of their grandfather, the Best of Creation

Who is the master over all the Angels and Messengers

Their clothes are green, they have glory and honor

Allah has honored them with Paradise and its abodes

Their stations of security (Q 54:54) they have been given, fragrant

A great domain of beautiful homes and jewelery

So if you see, you'll see their domain, a great domain

That shall belong to the Ahlul Bayt, the house of Ali

The house of contentment, never leave their door

And rise up and go to them, on horses, on camels

The people of guidance travel to visit them

And those who forbid it are hit with failure

The Best of Creation used to visit the people of Badr

In every year, and this is clear and manifest

And the companions came to visit him from afar

Seeking by his visit to be cured from their defects

Then we ask Allah for Salat on the Mustafa our master

and upon his family and companions, at every time

And the family, the family of Rasool Allah our master

and likewise salaam, the greeting of hope and love

As long as al-Ja'fari is overjoyed with love

In praise of the family of the Prophet, the noblest of Messengers
