1. يا مَن تَرَدّى بِحُلَّةِ الشَمسِ

    وَمَن رَماني بِأَسهُمٍ خَمسِ

    O you who clothed yourself in the sun's robe,

    And you who shot me with five arrows:

  2. بِالطَرفِ وَالثَغرِ وَالسَوالِفِ وَالنَح

    رِ وَشَيءٍ يَطيبُ في اللَمسِ

    With the gaze, the mouth, the sides of the neck, and the upper

    Chest, and something delightful to the touch.

  3. ها أَنا ذا بِالذُنوبِ مُعتَرِفٌ

    فَهَب لِذُلّي جِنايَتَي أَمسِ

    Here I am, confessing my sins;

    So, for my abasement, forgive yesterday's two offenses.

  4. وَجُد لِمُستَمطِرِ الجُفونِ دَماً

    شَغَلتَهُ عَن صَلاتِهِ الخَمسِ

    And be generous to one who calls on his eyelids to rain blood,

    Whom you have distracted from his five prayers.

  5. سَأَلتُ عَن وَصفِكَ الصِفاتِ فَما

    نَطَقنَ إِلّا بِأَلسُنٍ خُرسِ

    I asked the attributes how to describe you, but they

    Spoke only with mute tongues.
