يا مُوْقِدَ النَّارِ في قلبي وفي كَبِدي

أَوقَدْتَ ما لَيْسَ يُطْفا آخِرَ الأَبَدِ

O kindler of fire in my heart and my liver

You have kindled what will not be extinguished till the end of time

أَوقَدْتَ نارَ الهَوى بِالشَّوقِ فَاشْتَعَلَتْ

مِنَ الجَوانِحِ لم تَخْمُدْ ولَم تَكَدِ

You have kindled the fire of passion with yearning and it has blazed

From my innermost being, it will not subside or diminish
