1. I donned the garb of worshippers,
The cloak of mysticism.

2. I donned it out of my desire for it
And my fear of breaking its threads,

3. Out of my longing for it
And my aspiration.

4. I donned it in Mecca
During the hajj, with wisdom.

5. I donned the raiment of piety
Trusting in my ennoblement.

6. For it is the beloved
Of refined allure,

7. Veiled, sought-after
By the zealous lover.
