جسمٌ بلا روح ضجيعُ الرَّدى

غصنٌ ذوى يا ليته أورقا

A body without a soul, laid low by decay

A withered branch, would that it flowered again

روحٌ بلا عِلم وهي بيته

لرؤية الأغيار إذ أخلقا

A soul without knowledge, though it is its home

For strangers to behold, when they were created

افتقر الكل إلى جوده

أهل الأباطيلِ ومَن حققا

All were in need of His bounty

The people of falsehood, and those of truth

فوجّه الأنوار سيارة

أنارت المغربَ والمشرقا

So He sent the lights traveling

Illuminating West and East

فأشرق الجسمُ بأنواره

وأظهر الأسرارَ إذ أشرقا

Thus the body shone with His lights

Revealing mysteries when it shone

فالحمد لله الذي قد وقى

من شرِّ ما يُحذر أو يُتَّقى

So praise be to God who has protected

From the evil that is feared or avoided
