1. O one afflicted with love praised,
Meeting from love wounds,
١. يا مبتلَى بالحبِّ مفدوحاً
لاقي من الحبِّ تباريحا
2. Love has bound him, so he does not bend,
Except with a cup of longing illuminated,
٢. ألجَمه الحبُّ فما ينثني
إلا بكأس الشوق مصبوحا
3. And what pleases him has become closed,
To him and what he hates opened,
٣. وصار ما يُعجبه مغلقاً
عنه وما يَكرهُ مفتوحا
4. He has gained her, so from her he obtained,
The scent and the breeze,
٤. قد حازها من أصبحت عنده
ينال منها ا لشمِّ والرِّيحا
5. Representative of God, so ask the passion,
And fortify a heart from you wounded.
٥. خليفةُ الله فسلِّ الهوى
وعزَّ قلباً منك مجروحا
