1. I came to you, not from intimacy that is between us
Nor for a favour I have given, so I get rewarded
١. أتيتك لا من قربة هي بيننا
ولا نعمة قدمتها أستثيبها
2. But with the hopeful, if you were a source
To it, the seekers of religion yearn in their hearts
٢. ولكن مع الراجين أن كنت مورداً
إليه بغاة الدين تهفو قلوبها
3. Relieve me with a stream from your clouds that clothes me
And protect you from the harm of men and their grey hair
٣. أغثني بسجل من نداك يكفني
وقاك الردى مرد الرجال وشيبها
4. You are called the son of Abdullah, free due to his description
And that is the height, referring to those who criticise it
٤. تسمى ابن عبد اللَه حرّاً لوصفه
وتلك العلا يعنى بها من يعيبها
