1. O you who forgot me though to know me you are obligated
Your memory of me with every breath is associated
١. يا ناسِياً لي عَلى عِرفانِهِ تَلَفي
ذِكرُكَ مِنِّيَ بِالأَنفاسِ مَوصولُ
2. And severed my connection without any cause
By God, you for my soul will be held accountable
٢. وَقاطِعاً صِلَتي مِن غَيرِ ما سَبَبٍ
تَاللَهِ إِنَّكَ عَن روحي لَمَسؤولُ
3. Do what you wish, from you all is tolerable
The sin is pardoned and the excuse acceptable
٣. ما شِئتَ فَاصنَعهُ كُلٌّ مِنكَ مُحتَمَلٌ
وَالذَنبُ مُغتَفَرٌ وَالعُذرُ مَقبولُ
4. If you were my fortune, I'd not seek an alternative
Or attained your approval, hope would cease to linger
٤. لَو كُنتَ حَظِّيَ لَم أَطلُب بِهِ بَدَلاً
أَو نِلتُ مِنكَ الرِضا لَم يَبقَ مَأمولُ
