هذي البتول التي حل الإله بها
فاطلب شفاعتها يا أيها الجاني
This maiden whom God chose to dwell in
Seek her intercession, O you who sin
هذي التي اختارها عرشاً لقدرته ال
باري وأخزى بباهي شانها الشاني
She whom the Lord selected as a throne for His might
The Creator disgraced the glorious with her glorious distinction
هذي التي من ظلام الجهل تخرجني
مبرراً قبل إدخالي بأكفاني
She who saves me from the darkness of ignorance
Justifying me before shrouding me in my coffin
ما كنت أحسب لولا حسن صورتها
أن الإله أتى في زي إنسان
I would not have thought had it not been for the goodness of her image
That God would come in the form of a human
يا دوحة اللَه يا بحر المراحم يا
غوث الخلائق من قاص ومن دان
O palm tree of God, O sea of mercy, O
Savior of creatures, from the near and the far
ما لي سوى حبك المغروس بي شرف
يا أشرف الخلق يخزي كل شيطان
I have nothing but your love planted honorably in me
O most honored of creations, shaming every devil
حاشا حنوك أن يرضى بتهلكتي
وبحر جودك أن يقضي بحرماني
It is far from you to accept my destruction
And far from your sea of generosity to deny me
تقسمت بيننا الأديان يا أملي
فكنت ديني ومن أحشاك دياني
The religions divided between us, O my hope
So you became my religion, and from your lap, my faith
