1. يا مُجيبَ المُضْطَرِّ عِنْدَ الدُّعاءِ

    مِنكَ دائِي وفي يَدَيْكَ دوائي

    O You who answer the distressed when they pray,

    From You comes my illness, and in Your hands is my cure.

  2. جَذَبَتْنِي الدُّنيا إلَيْها بِضَبْعي

    ودَعَتْني لِمِحْنَتِي وشَقائي

    The world drew me toward itself by my upper arm,

    And called me to my ordeal and my misery.

  3. يا إلهي وأنْتَ تَعْلَمُ حالي

    لا تَذَرْني شماتَةَ الأعداءِ

    O my God, You know my condition—

    Do not leave me for my enemies to gloat over.
