يا ناسِياً لي عَلى عِرفانِهِ تَلَفي

ذِكرُكَ مِنِّيَ بِالأَنفاسِ مَوصولُ

O you who forgot me though to know me you are obligated

Your memory of me with every breath is associated

وَقاطِعاً صِلَتي مِن غَيرِ ما سَبَبٍ

تَاللَهِ إِنَّكَ عَن روحي لَمَسؤولُ

And severed my connection without any cause

By God, you for my soul will be held accountable

ما شِئتَ فَاصنَعهُ كُلٌّ مِنكَ مُحتَمَلٌ

وَالذَنبُ مُغتَفَرٌ وَالعُذرُ مَقبولُ

Do what you wish, from you all is tolerable

The sin is pardoned and the excuse acceptable

لَو كُنتَ حَظِّيَ لَم أَطلُب بِهِ بَدَلاً

أَو نِلتُ مِنكَ الرِضا لَم يَبقَ مَأمولُ

If you were my fortune, I'd not seek an alternative

Or attained your approval, hope would cease to linger
