نغيبُ – فتبصر الأشياءُ – فينا

نغيبُ – فتبصر الأشياءُ – فينا

ونبصرها سرابا أو يقينا

ونبصرها سرابا أو يقينا

We vanish—and things see—within us.

We are absent - thus things become clear - within us

And we see them as a mirage or certainty.

And we see them as mirage or certainty

دليلُ الماء في الماقبل طينٌ

دليلُ الماء في الماقبل طينٌ

حملنا سره قلقا دفينا

حملنا سره قلقا دفينا

Water's sign in the before is clay;

The guide of water ahead is clay

We carried its secret as a buried unease.

We carried its secret restless, buried

وسر الطين في المابعد فيضٌ

وسر الطين في المابعد فيضٌ

تكاشف حين شفَّ العارفينا

تكاشف حين شفَّ العارفينا

And clay's secret in the after is an outpouring

And the secret of clay later is abundance

That unveiled itself when it wore the knowers thin.

It was unveiled when the knowers were healed

غموضٌ في الوجود يشفُّ منَّا

غموضٌ في الوجود يشفُّ منَّا

كفانا الوجدُ.. في المعنى ابتلينا

كفانا الوجدُ.. في المعنى ابتلينا

A mystery in existence shows through us;

There is ambiguity in existence that heals us

Ecstasy has sufficed us... in meaning we have been tried.

The ecstasy sufficed us.. in meaning we were tested
