1. I will take off my adornments out of love for you
By your power, not mine, I have no stratagems
١. لأخلعَنّ عذَارى في مَحبتَّكُمْ
بِحوَلكم لا بِحولي لا ولا حِيَلي
2. And I will leave the universe until I no longer see it
Nor see my glancing due to my abandoning of glances
٢. وأتركُ الكوْنَ حَتَّى لا أراهُ ولا
أرى اللحوْظَ لترَكِ الترَكِ من قبَلِي
3. Creation was created for you, and the matter is your matter
So what thing am I if I was not from your loci?
٣. الخلقُ خَلقكمُ والأمْرُ أمْركُمُ
فأيُّ شيء أنا لا كُنتَ مِنْ طَلِلَ
4. I spoke the truth - there is nothing in the universe but you
I take refuge in God from my knowledge and my deeds
٤. الحقّ قُلتُ وما في الكوِن غيركُم
أعوذُ باللهِ منْ عِلمي ومِنْ عَمَلي
5. The veil has no place in your existence
Except by the mystery of letters - look to the mountain
٥. ما للحِجَاب مكاَنُ فِي وجودِكُمْ
إِلاَّ بِسر حروف انظُرْ إِلى الجبلِ
6. You appeared but then were hidden by your appearance
You pointed to yourselves for the pointer and for me
٦. ظهرْتُمُ فَخفِيتمْ مِنْ ظُهورِكُم
أنتمُ دَللتمْ علَيْكُم لِلدّليل ولِي
7. You pointed to yourselves through yourselves and by yourselves
An everlastingness that expressed the ambiguous eternity
٧. أنتم دَللتمْ عليكمُ منكمُ بكمْ
ديمُومةً عبرَّتْ عن غَامِض الأزلِ
8. I knew you yet who is this expert in you?
You are them and the life of love, O my hope!
٨. عرفْتُمُوكم فمنْ هذا الخبِيرُ بكُمْ
أنتمْ هُمُ وحياةِ الحب يا أملي
9. How much denial denies - no, and the acquaintance is your acquaintance -
Denial is only for the hastened created being
٩. كمْ ينكرُ النكر لا والعرْفُ عُرْفكُمُ
وإِنما النكرّ للمخلوقُ منْ عجل
10. With delusion they prove and verification negates it
How can the weak moth have patience for the flame?
١٠. بالوْهم يثبتُن والتّحقِيق يُعدمُهُ
أنَّى لضعف الفرَاش الصّبرُ للشعل
11. The splendors of glory burned every veil
I admit to powerlessness, submission, and laziness
١١. قدْ أحرَقْت سُبُحاتُ المجد كل حجي
أقرّ بالعجزِ والاذعانِ والكسلِ
