1. رَسولَ الهُدى ضاقَت بِيَ الحالُ في الوَرى

    وَأَنتَ بِما أَمَّلتَ مِنكَ جَديرِ

    O Messenger of guidance, my circumstances have grown straitened among humankind.

    And you are worthy of what you have hoped for from yourself.

  2. فَسَل خالِقي تَفريجَ كَربي فَإِنَّهُ

    بِجاهِكَ يا روحَ الوُجودِ يَجيرِ

    So ask my Creator to relieve my anguish, for indeed He

    grants refuge through your standing, O soul of existence.

  3. وَلَيسَ سِواهُ جَلَّ شَأنُ جَلالِهِ

    عَلى فَرَجي دونَ الأَنامِ قَديرِ

    And none but Him—exalted is the eminence of His majesty—

    has power to grant me relief, to the exclusion of humankind.
