1. عدْ مدنفَ القلب صبَّه

    يا محوِجَ الدَّمعِ صَبَّه

    Visit the heart’s ailing, lovesick one,

    O you who compel the tears to pour.

  2. أخذتَ جملة قلبي

    فلم تدع منه حبه

    You have taken my whole heart,

    And left not a grain of it,

  3. أخْذ الأمامِ مديحِي

    في كلَّ صاحب رتبة

    As the imam has claimed my praise

    Among all who hold rank:

  4. قاضي القضاة الملبَّى

    تاج السراة الألبه

    The chief judge, whose call is answered,

    The crown of the wise nobles.

  5. مولاي هنئتَ صوماً

    جليل قربٍ وقربَه

    My lord, may your fasting be blessed,

    Exalted in nearness and devotion.

  6. يا نعمة للمرجّى

    وللمعاند نشبه

    O blessing to the hopeful,

    And a snare for the obstinate foe!

  7. هذا يفطّر فاه

    وذا يفطرُ قلبه

    This one breaks his mouth’s fast,

    And that one has his heart broken.
