تجلى اسمك المولى بعز كماله

فالهمني نقصي وذل عبودتي

Your glorious name, my Master, appeared with mighty perfection,

So inspire me with my inadequacy and the humility of my servitude,

والهمني أن أقرع الباب عائذاً

بمجد ولاء العزة المولوية

And inspire me to knock on the door seeking refuge,

With the glory of loyalty to Your majestic authority,

والمهني أن أنصب الوجه عانياً

لوجهك ربي في رجائي وخيفتي

And inspire me to offer my face humbly,

To Your face, my Lord, in my hope and awe,

إليك وأنت المستعان تدافعت

تباكرت أطماعي وفاقة خلتي

To You, as You are the one whose help is sought, I turned,

My ambitions and lack of means besieged me,

ولم يعتدد مولاي وإلى بزلفة

إليك ولكن جود مولاي زلفتي

And my Master did not neglect, and to intimacy,

To You, but my Master's generosity brought me near,

كفى بك مولى راحماً لي مدبراً

أموري مختاراً لما فيه خيرتي

It suffices, my Master, that You are merciful to me, directing my affairs,

Choosing what is best for me,

توليتني من عهد انشاء فطرتي

بنعمة ايجادي وابقاء نعمتي

You have taken care of me since creating my nature,

With the blessing of originating and sustaining me,

وصرفتني ما شئت مولاي تابعاً

شؤونك معطياً من اللّه قدرتي

And You have led me as You willed, my Master, obediently following Your affairs,

Giving from God my capability,

ونسبة ما يلقي التضايف صورة

عرفت بها وليست بتأثير صورت

And the relationship of attachment gives an image,

Through which I knew, and it is not by affecting an image,

وما السلب والايجاب لي فيه محمل

سوى أثر لم يعد فقر جبلتي

And I have no responsibility for negation or affirmation in it,

Except the trace that did not dispel the destitution of my nature,

تنازعت الأهوال مولاي جانبي

وفي يدك الله مفتاح فرجتي

Afflictions contended for my side, my Master,

And in Your hand, O God, is the key to my relief.
