أخْجَلْتَني يا مُخْجِلَ الشّمْسِ

بمَكارِمٍ أعْيَتْ علَى نَفْسي

You embarrassed me, o embarrasser of the sun

With virtues that exhausted my soul

حمّلْتَني ما لا أُطيقُ بهِ

فدَهِشْتُ منْكَ وغِبْتُ عنْ حِسّي

You burdened me with what I cannot bear

So I was amazed by you and lost my senses

يا نُورَ ناظِريَّ وسِرَّ هَوى

قلْبي ويا عِزّي ويا أُنْسي

O light of my eyes and secret of my love

My heart, my pride and my intimacy

أنا غَرْسُ مُلْكِكَ جُدْتَني بنَدَى

كفّيْكَ فاجْنِ الحَمْدَ منْ غَرْسي

I am a plant of your kingdom, you brought me dew

Enough for you so reap praise from my plant

شُكْراً بجودِ يَدٍ احْتَرَقَتْ

سُحْبُ الحَيا ببَنانِه الخمْسِ

Thanks for the generosity of a hand that burned

The clouds of life with its five fingers

وعمَرْتَ كُرسيَّ الخِلافَةِ معْصو

ماً بحقِّ العرْشِ والكُرْسي

And you enabled the succession with support

With the right of the throne and the seat
