أَفْدِي الَّذي شَفَّ قَلْبِي

بِغُنْجِهِ وَالتِّيهِ

I sacrifice myself for the one who healed my heart

With his singing and wandering

حَازَ الكَمالَ فَأَضْحى

بَدْرُ الدُّجى يَحْكِيهِ

He attained perfection thus becoming

The full moon illuminating the darkness

يُبْدِي غَرائِبَ حُسْنٍ

جَلَّتْ عَنِ التَّشْبِيهِ

Revealing the wonders of beauty

Beyond any comparison

يَحْتَجُّ لِي كُلَّ يَوْمٍ

عَلَى العَواذِلِ فِيهِ

Every day he argues for me

Against those who blame him
