خير البرية

Khairul Bariyya

A beautiful poem praising the Best of Creation ﷺ, expressing deep love and seeking his blessed attention and mercy

خَيْرُ الْـبَرِ يَّه نَظْرَةٌ اِلَىَّ

مَا أَ نْتَ اِلاَّ اِلاَّ كَنْزُ الْعَطِيَّة

O Best of Creation, cast a glance towards me

You are none but a treasure of gifts

1

يَابَحْرَ فَضْلٍ وَتَاجَ عَدْلٍ

جُدْلِيْ بِوَصْلٍ وَصْلٍ قَبْلَ الْمَنِيَّة

O Ocean of Grace and Crown of Justice

Be generous to me with connection before death

2

كَمْ ذَا اُنَادِيْ يَا خَيْرَهَادِيْ

يَكْفِيْ سُعَادِيْ سُعَادِيْ عَطْفًا عَلَيَّ

How long shall I call, O Best of Guides

My happiness is sufficient, show kindness to me

3

حَاشَاكَ تَغْفَلْ عَنَّا وَتَغْفَلْ

يَاخَيْرَ مُرْسَلْ مُرْسَلْ اِرْحَمْ شَجِيًّا

Far be it from you to be heedless of us

O Best of Messengers, have mercy on the sorrowful

4

اُهْدِيْكَ حُبِّيْ صَلوٰةُ رَبِّىْ

مَادَامَ قَلْبِيْ قَلْبِيْ بِالذِّكْرِ حَيـَّا

I gift you my love and my Lord's blessings

As long as my heart remains alive with remembrance
