1. عُبَيدكَ يا تواب جاءك عائذاً

    تحمل ذنباً فاعف عما تحملا

    Your lowly servant, O Acceptor of repentance, has come to You seeking refuge.

    He has burdened himself with sin; pardon what he has borne.

  2. وجد بمتاب يا عفو ورحمة

    على عبد سوء طالما عنك اغفلا

    And bestow repentance and mercy, O Pardoner,

    upon a sinful servant who has long been heedless of You.

  3. ببابك يدعو يا بصيراً بحاله

    فاوسع له يا واسع الفضل مجزلا

    At Your door he prays, O You who see his condition;

    so give him generously and lavishly, O You of boundless bounty.

  4. أتيت ذنوباً يا غفور فكن لها

    وقد تبت منها يا حليم مبدلا

    I have committed sins, O All-Forgiving; so may You,

    now that I have repented of them, O Forbearing One, transform them.

  5. تعرضت وهناً يا رؤوف لرأفة

    تجود بها يا شاكراً متقبلا

    In weakness I have sought, O Compassionate One, the compassion

    You generously bestow, O Appreciative, Accepting One.

  6. وإن أوحشتني يا الهي خطيئتي

    فأنس رجائي فيك يا واحد انجلى

    And though my sin has left me desolate, O my God,

    the solace of my hope in You, O One, has shone forth.

  7. فكن راضياً لي يا شكور تنسكي

    فطوبى لمن تولي الرضا والتقبلا

    So be pleased with my devotion, O Most Appreciative;

    blessed is the one to whom You grant Your pleasure and acceptance.

  8. وزدني خضوعاً فيك يا متكبراً

    إذا حط قدري الناس أعلاه فاعتلى

    And increase my humility before You, O Supremely Great One;

    when people lower my standing, humility lifts it, and it rises high.

  9. ويا غافر الذنب اغفر الذنب والخطا

    وإن كان وزراً يقصم الظهر مثقلا

    And, O Forgiver of sin, forgive sin and error,

    even if it is a heavy burden that breaks the back.

  10. ويا قابل التوب اقبل التوبة التي

    أتاك بها عبد جنى فتنصلا

    And, O Acceptor of repentance, accept the repentance

    brought to You by a servant who sinned, then sought absolution.

  11. وهذا مرامي يا كريم ومقصدي

    وما خاب من أم الكريم وأملا

    And this is my aim, O Generous One, and my purpose.

    And none who sought the Generous One and hoped has been disappointed.
