1. غين بين المحو قد بان

    وبدا فجري

    A veil has appeared amid effacement,

    and my dawn has emerged.

  2. وبقا صحوي قد آن

    مذجلا ستري

    And my sobriety’s abiding is now at hand,

    since my veil cleared away.

  3. قد خلت ذاتي بذاتي

    في عما سري

    My essence has been alone with my essence,

    in the cloud of my secret.

  4. وانمحت عيني لما

    انمحى أسري

    And my eye was effaced when

    my captivity was effaced.

  5. وغدت ذاتي لها ذات

    في بر بحري

    And my essence became an essence for her,

    in the land of my sea.

  6. واسمي لها اسم

    في بحر بري

    And my name is a name for her,

    in the sea of my land.

  7. ظلمات بعضها فوق بعض

    وبدا غيري

    Darknesses, some above others,

    and what is other than me appeared.

  8. ما ألذ الفتك فيها

    ولها أصري

    How sweet is slaying within her,

    and hers is my bond.

  9. همت في يمّ الذات لما

    جلت في قبري

    I wandered in the sea of the Essence when

    she shone forth in my grave.
