1. Time was jealous of his spring
Until the spring envied itself
١. حَسَدَ الزَمانُ معينهُ
حَتّى أَغارَ مَعينَهُ
2. This lover of Allah, he who
Became his enemy was cursed
٢. هذا حَبيبُ اللَهِ مَن
عاداهُ كانَ لَعينهُ
3. Give him good news, for with him
Are the gardens of Paradise as his spring
٣. بُشراهُ إِن لَدَيهِ مِن
سربِ الجِنانِ لَعينَهُ
4. He who betrayed him if he did
Would ransom him with certainty
٤. قَد كانَ إِن غَدَرَ العِدا
يَفدينَهُ وَيَقينَهُ
5. Even the suns wish they could
Ransom him with certainty
٥. حَتّى الشُموسُ تَوَدُّ لَو
يَفدينَهُ وَيَقينَهُ
