1. لِأَيِّ شَيءٍ صَدَدتَ عَنّي

    يا بائِناً بِالعَزاءِ مِنّي

    For what reason have you turned away from me?

    O you who have carried solace away from me!

  2. هَل كانَ مِنّي فَعالُ سوءٍ

    يَحسُنِ في مِثلِهِ التَجَنّي

    Have I committed an evil deed

    for which such unjust reproach would be fitting?

  3. إِن كانَ ذَنبٌ فَعِد بِعَفوٍ

    مِنكَ يُسَلّى نَجِيَّ حُزني

    If there is a fault, then promise forgiveness

    from you, so my sorrow's confidant may be consoled.

  4. إِنَّ شَفيعي إِلَيكَ مِنّي

    دُموعُ عَيني وَحُسنُ ظَنّي

    Indeed, my intercessor with you, on my behalf,

    is my eye's tears and my good opinion of you.

  5. فَبِالَّذي قادَني ذَليلاً

    إِلَيكَ إِلّا عَفَوتَ عَنّي

    So, by that which led me, humbled,

    to you, please pardon me.
