وَإِذا الحَبيب وَفى بِوَعدك مَرة

وَإِذا الحَبيب وَفى بِوَعدك مَرة

وَتَحمل المَكروه مِن رَقبائِهِ

وَتَحمل المَكروه مِن رَقبائِهِ

And if the beloved once keeps his promise to you,

And if the beloved once kept his promise to you,

and endures what is hateful from those who watch him,

And bore hardship from his watchers,

وَبَذلت روحك في رِضاهُ وَكُلَّما

وَبَذلت روحك في رِضاهُ وَكُلَّما

مَلَكت يَمينك لَم تَقُم بِوَفائِهِ

مَلَكت يَمينك لَم تَقُم بِوَفائِهِ

and you give up your soul for his contentment, and everything

And you gave your soul to please him, and all that

your right hand possessed—you still would not have requited his faithfulness.

Your right hand possessed, you would not do justice to his faithfulness.
