1. O dwelling, by Allah Lord of Muhammad
You have captivated my heart with charm, so compensate me

2. And feel ashamed of killing one who did not wrong you
With estrangement or enmity, and did not spurn you

3. O dwelling, though I come to your abode
Not to ask after you or spurn you in disdain

4. O dwelling, how many were brought near us then spurned
And how many ardent suitors were made to withdraw

5. For you I have estranged my kin and lady friends
And for you I have deliberately joined ties with those who hate me

6. For you I have kept a trust I was charged with
And disobeyed every inciter and spurner

7. O dwelling, loving you when I was charged with loving you
Is a purpose I see, by the Lord of Mecca, enduring

8. O dwelling, the pact between us was
A vow of patience from you that you would not break

9. Not to break pacts, and that being joined with you
Would not be the taste of casual faith of the duty-bound

10. Yet after renewing it, you put that on me from you
Unjustly, by my life, like a worn-out garment

11. And I found your tie to be among the ties of a keeper
To whom all creatures are exposed in being joined
