اقر اللهُ عينكِ يا جفوني

فقد أعتقت من رق السهاد

May God delight your eyes, O my eyelids,

For you have been freed from the shackles of sleepiness.

ويا عيني لك البشرى فنامي

وتهنيك السلامة يا فؤادي

And O my eyes, good tidings to you, so sleep,

And congratulations on your safety, O my heart!

نزعت عن الهوى وبرئت منه

إليك وكنت دهري في جهاد

I have been weaned from passion and cured of it;

To you I have returned after struggling with it forever.
