1. He knew not that blaming you made him fall,
When he plunged into false accusations against you.

2. If only blame would heal me
And cure the pain of love that afflicts me.

3. Stand at the abode and roam around it,
If it could respond and greet you.

4. And shed your tears generously upon its soil,
Perhaps weeping will relieve some of your agony.

5. And call out to a heart that strayed in its meadows,
If it would accept its scattered remains as ransom.

6. Will you get an affectionate glance from the one who's stingy,
That would heal your wounds or sweeten your echo?

7. How much do you yearn for her while your share with her
Is but evidence that meets your passion with rejection?

8. Wait, O Abu Al-Abbas, in seeking exaltation,
And precede her in giving away your provisions.

9. Is there any virtue in the heavens she does not possess,
That you seek to attain like the planets?

10. God guide your right hand away from dew,
And lighten your steps upon the roads of glory.

11. You made your Lord pleased and held firm to His command,
And followed the guidance of His Prophet, so He guided you.

12. You divided your concerns between keeping His covenants
And serving the King who made you His own.

13. You exemplified generosity until we picked
The fruits of justice from your palms.

14. You shaded your enemies with your towering glory
Until we counted oppression among your killings.

15. I give you glad tidings of the Great Feast, for it
Has arrived, and its goal is to bring you joy.

16. And congratulate me upon my blessed dwelling, for it has come,
While yearning pulls it towards meeting you.

17. And take your generosity to the extent you desire its gifts,
For the desert wishes that you attain your wishes.

18. Rejoice, for time has recorded, saying,
Alas! O Tawfiq, your feast of sacrifice has been lost.
