مَوْلَايَ صَلِّي وَسَلِّـمْ دَآئِــماً أَبَــــدًا  ۞ عَلـــَى  حَبِيْبِـكَ خَيْــرِالْخَلْقِ  كُلِّهِـــــمِ

هُوَ الْحَبِيْبُ الَّذِيْ تُرْجَى شَفَاعَتُــهُ   ۞ لِكُلّ  هَوْلٍ  مِنَ  الْأِهْوَالِ  مُقْتَحِـــــــمِ

أَمِنْ تَذَكُّرِ جِيْرَانٍ بِذِيْ سَــــلَــــــمٍ   ۞ مَزَجْتَ  دَمْعًا  جَرَى  مِنْ  مُقْلَةٍ بِـــدَمِ

أَمْ هَبَّتِ الرِّيْحُ  مِنْ  تِلْقَاءِ  كَاظِمَةٍ   ۞ وَأَوْمَضَ الْبَرْقُ فِيْ الْضَمَآءِ مِنْ إِضَمِ

فَمَا  لِعَيْنَيْكَ  إِنْ  قُلْتَ  اكْفُفَا هَمَتَــا  ۞  وَمَا  لِقَلْبِــــكَ إِنْ  قُلْتَ اسْتَفِقْ  يَهِـــــمِ

أَيَحَسَبُ الصَّبُّ أَنَّ الْحُبَّ مُنْكَتـــِمٌ   ۞ مَا  بَيْنَ مُنْسَجِمٍ مِنْــهُ وَمضْطَــــــــرِمِ

لَوْلَاالْهَوَى لَمْ تُرِقْ دَمْعاً عَلَي طـلَلٍ ۞ وَلاَ أرَقْتَ لِذِكْـــــر الْبَــــانِ وَالْعَلـَـــمِ

فَكَيْفَ تُنْكِرُحُباًّ بَعْدَ مَا شَـــــــهِدَتْ  ۞ بِهِ عَلَيْكَ عُدُوْلُ الدَّمْــــــعِ وَالسَّــــــقَمِ
