طلبت ذَلولُ عزيزها لتزيله

عن ظهرها كرماً به فأجابا

She asked her beloved to remove him

From her back out of generosity, so he obeyed

عن إذن خالقها دعتْه لنفسها

لذاك لبى طائعاً وأنابا

By the permission of his Creator she called him for herself

Thus he willingly complied and turned to her

قد ألبسته من الترابِ لغيرة

قامت بها حباً له جلبابا

She clothed him with dust out of jealousy

She did it out of love for him as a cloak

مما تحب مقامه في بطنها

ألقتْ عليه جنادلاً وترابا

Of what she loves, his staying in her womb

She covered him with membranes and dust

حتى يقيم بها إلى اليوم الذي

يُدعى ليحضر موقفاً وحسابا

So that he would stay with her until the day

He is called to attend a place of judgment and reckoning

فيفوز بالخير الأعم ويعتلى

نحو الكثيب ليبصر الأحبابا

Where he will win the greatest good and ascend

Towards the hill to see the loved ones
