1. يا مَن إذا رقدَ النوّامُ ليلَهمُ

    سَهِرتُ أَرقبُ منه بهجةَ الأَبَدِ

    O You, when sleepers slumber through their night,

    I stay awake, awaiting from You the joy of eternity.

  2. أَنتَ الذي شَغَلت قلبي محبَّتُهُ

    فما له نظرٌ يلوي على أَحَدِ

    You are the One whose love has occupied my heart,

    So its gaze turns toward no one else.

  3. يا ربِّ أَنتَ الذي أَغنيتني كرماً

    عن كلِّ شيءٍ بما أودعتَ في كَبدي

    O my Lord, You are the One who has generously made me independent

    Of all things, through what You have placed within my liver.

  4. من ذا يراكَ فتحدُوهُ مطالبه

    الى سِواكَ طوالَ الدَّهرِ والأَبَدِ

    Who is there who sees You, then is driven by his desires

    To anyone other than You, throughout time and eternity?
