يَاخَيْرَ مَدْعُوٍّ يَاخَيْرَ مَنْ اعْطٰي يَاخَيْرَ مَنْ سُئِلَ يَامَنْ اَضَآئَ بِاِسْمِهٖ ضَوْٓئُ النَّھَارِ وَاَظْلَمَ بِهٖ ظُلْمَةُ اللَّيْلِ وَسَالَ بِاِسْمِهٖ وَابِلُ السَّيْلٍ وَرَزَقَ اَوْلِيَآئَهُ كُلَّ خَيْرٍ يَامَنْ عَلَا السَّمٰوٰتِ نُوْرُهٗ وَالْاَرْضَ ضَوْٓئُهٗ وَالشَّرْقَ وَالْغَرْبَ رَحْمَتُهٗ يَاوَاسِعَ الْجُوْدِ اَسْئَلُكَ بِحَقِّ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مُوَسَي الرِّضَا عَلَيْھِمَا السَّلَامُ وَاُقَدِّمُهٗ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ حَوَآئِجِيْ اَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَي مُحَمَّدٍ وَاَلِ مُحمَّدٍ وَاَنْ تَفْعَلَ بِيْ كَذَا وَكَذَا۔

Translation:

O Best of all besought ones! O Best of all givers! O Best of all asked ones! O He by Whose Name the light of days beams, the darkness of nights dims, the heavy rain of floods flows, and has provided His intimate servants with all prosperity! O He Whose light has gone up the heavens, Whose beam has gone up the earth, and Whose mercy has gone up the east and the west! O Ample in magnanimity, I beseech You in the name of `Ali, the son of Musa, the well-contented, peace be upon both of them, and I present him as my mediation for the settling of my needs, (please) send blessings upon Muhammad and the Household of Muhammad
