O’ Hussein, your day’s the Day;
O’ Hussein, your way’s the Way;
O’ Hussein, your love’s the Love.
O’ Hussein, you are the one whose light is never out;
O’ Hussein, you are the one whose way is ever bright;
O’ Hussein, you are the one whose words are the most high.
O’ Hussein, you are the one whose blood has saved Islam;
O’ Hussein, you are the one whose message has reached everywhere, every time, every man;
O’ Hussein, you are Hussein son of Ali of Islam.
O’ Hussein, you are truthful, rightful;
O’ Hussein, you were alone on your way, on that day, in that land;
O’ Hussein, you gave essence to Islam,
You gave a sense to meaning,
You’ve shown the way to mankind.
O’ Hussein, your name echoes all goodness;
Your name flows on my lips,
Your name blooms in my mind, in my heart, on my soul…
