1. I shook the hand of fate, O Lord pleading
For my sin, and who calls upon You with glory and victory
١. هززت يد الاقدار يا رب ضارعا
بذنبي ومن يدعوك بعلو وينصر
2. Help me with kindness from Your affection promptly
With it the heart comes alive and the obstinate is defeated
٢. اغثني بلطف من حنانك عاجل
به القلب يحيى والمعاند يقهر
3. So the affairs of the unseen may appear with righteousness and pleasure
And the garden that stood with malice plotting is disappointed
٣. لتبدو شؤُن الغيب بالبر والرضا
ويخذل باغ قام بالحقد يمكر
4. And comes humiliated, submissive, just as the one
Around whom the lion of the wilderness roars
٤. ويأتي ذليلا خاضعا مثلما الذي
حواليه اسد الغاب في البر تزأر
5. With Your great signs and every truth
That appeared to the greatest prophets blossoming
٥. بآياتك الكبرى وكل حقيقة
بدت للنبين الاعاظم تزهر
6. With all the meanings of mystery on earth and in the heavens
And every saint whose secret remembers You
٦. بكل معاني السر في الارض والسما
وكل ولي سره لك يذكر
7. Save me with kindness and reveal the worries and troubles
For my heart is weary and gloomy with these worries
٧. تدارك بلطف واكشف الهم والعنا
فقلبي بهذا الهم مضنى مكدر
8. I called upon You hoping for mercy and care
And secretly observe from the folds of the unseen to appear
٨. دعوتك ارجو رحمة وعناية
وارقب سرا من طوى الغيب يظهر
9. So I start the day joyful after my misery
And my troubles burst forth with what I wish would come true
٩. فاغدو قرير العين من بعد لوعتي
وفجر عنائي بالمنى يتفجر
10. The worry that touched my mind grew so big
With illness and in it God is the Greatest
١٠. لقد كبر الهم الذي مس مهجتي
بسقم ووردي فيه الله اكبر
