The Adornment of the Worshippers

Who can pray like you, O Sajjad? (as)
Who was found in prostration so much
that your forehead and palms had wounds
and the act and your name are now linked?
Who else genuflected a thousand times a day
yet so absorbed that the wind could him sway?
I ask again - who can pray like you?
Who had supplication after supplication
brilliant gems in praise of the Almighty
unmatchable in style and content
Spring forth from your blessed lips?
The Pslams of Islam, sister to the Quran
Blessed are we to have these pearls collected
and lucky is he who reads these prayers perfected
Whose supplications melt the hardest heart
Showing your adoration for your true Beloved
No doubt was prayer your sweetest pleasure
now thanks to you we have keys to that treasure
But let it not be said that you neglected duty to pray
You were the secret helper of the poor and needy
and fulfilled completely the rights of one and all
By example you led, and countless tears you shed
Perfect in every way is this divinely appointed title
