داسَ الحَبيبُ شُعاعَ الشّمسِ حينَ مَشى

وَغَيرهُ كانَ يَمشي فَوقَ دَيجورِ

The beloved trod upon the sunbeam when he walked

While others walked upon the ground's obscurity

وَعَنهُمُ الشّمس قَد أَخفَت أَشِعّتها

فَغَير ما داسَ مِنهُ غير مَنظورِ

And from them the sun hid its rays

So that none could see what he trod but that which shone

فَقُلت للَّه درُّ الشّمس قَد فُرشت

للحِبِّ مَكرمةً بُسْطاً مِنَ النّورِ

So I said: God - the sun's light was spread out

As an honor to love, a carpet of light
