1. انظر إليَّ بصفحٍ منك عن زَلَلي

    لا تتركَنِّيَ من ذنبي على وَجَلِ

    Look upon me with your pardon for my lapses.

    Do not leave me in fear because of my sin.

  2. روحي وروحُك مقرونان في قَرَنٍ

    فكيف أهجر مَن في هجرِه أجَلي

    My soul and yours are bound together by one cord.

    How, then, can I forsake one when parting from him is my death?

  3. وليس لي أمَلٌ إلا وصالكمُ

    فكيف أقطع مَن في وصله أمَلي

    And I have no hope but union with you.

    How, then, can I sever ties with one when my hope lies in union with him?

  4. هذا فؤاديَ لم يملِكه قبلكمُ

    خلقٌ وحقِّ أمير المؤمنين علي

    This heart of mine was never owned before you

    By any creature—I swear by the sanctity of Ali, Commander of the Faithful.
