1. وحُرمَةِ الأنْسِ يا أنيسي

    ويا أميري ويا رئيسي

    By the sanctity of companionship, O my companion,

    and O my prince, and O my chief,

  2. ما أنت مِمَّنْ يُرى بعينِ ال

    بدورِ عندي ولا الشموس

    You are not one regarded in the same light as the

    full moons, in my eyes, nor the suns.

  3. بل أنت عند النفوسِ ما إِنْ

    خُلْقْتَ إِلاَّ منَ النفوس

    Rather, in the eyes of souls, you were not

    created from anything but souls.

  4. فأنت في النفسِ في منامي

    وفي قيامي وفي جلوسي

    So you are in my soul as I sleep,

    and as I stand, and as I sit.

  5. حبَسْتُ شوقي إِليكَ أرجو ال

    ثَّوابَ في شوقيَ الحبيس

    I have imprisoned my longing for you, hoping for the

    reward for my captive longing.
