حييتَ مَن تَهوى فَحياكا

وأبعدَ الهجرَ وأدناكا

You have greeted those whom you love, so they greet you,

And have distanced estrangement, and drawn you near.

وسرَّكَ اللَه بما لم تزل

يحبهُ من قبل عيناكا

May God bless you with what, before your eyes,

He has always loved in you.

لم تطبِ الدنيا ولكنَّما

طابت بمن تهواهُ دُنياكا

The world was not good, but rather

It was good through those whom your world loves.

فعش قريرَ العينِ في نعمةٍ

فإنَّ من تهواه يهواكا

So live with delighted eyes in bounty,

For indeed, those whom you love, love you.
