With every breath, repeat that name, unceasing;
In Allah's name see every task completed.

Who says: Allah! in language truly loving
Shall see his sins, like autumn leaves, removing.

That man is pure who on the pure name calleth;
Who cries: Allah! attains his every purpose.

Come then in love, that holy name repeating;
Your woeful tears and heartfelt fears commingle.

Süleyman Chelebi, The Mevlidi Sherif
