سألتُ حبَّك إذ أخلصتُ ظاهرَه

لديك ثم صَفَتْ عندي سَرِيرتُه

I asked for your love when I was true to its appearance

Then withdrew into myself and refined its nature

فقلت بَلِّغه ما أخلصتُ منك له

فقال قد أنبأتْهُ بي طويّتُه

So I said "Tell him how true I was to him through you"

And it said "I have already told him in the folds of my being"
