صدور القوم سيدنا الرفاعي

هزبر الحضرة الغوث الكبير

The hearts of the people, our master Al-Rifa'i

The protector of the great glorious presence

واليكما عنى فحضرة فكرتي

ضافت وشتت همها اكبارها

To you both I turned, so in your presence I thought

It added and scattered its greatest worries

بالله هل لكما بما ملكت يدي

ان تجملا عيابها حضارها

By Allah, do you have the power of what my hands possess

To beautify its flaws, refine its civilization

فالخود تمنع ان يقص ذراعها

وتثيب حفظا للذراع سوارها

For shyness prevents the reaching of its arm

And rewards preservation for the arm's bracelet

يا لهف قلبي ان زهر احبتي

عمدا اطالت بالنوى اسفارها

Oh longing of my heart, the flower of my loved one

Intentionally extended its travel with wishes

كنا وكانت كالحديقة اطلعت

في روضها ملتفة ازهارها

We were and she was like a garden that bloomed

In its meadow, wrapped in its flowers

والآن صيرنا الفراق بصدعه

فرقا طوب انجادها اغوارها

And now separation has cracked us

Separating the pieces of its pillars and caves

الله ان العاشقين لفتية

قطعت بواصل حزنها اعمارها

By Allah, lovers are young men

Whose sorrow has cut short their lifespans

وتسيئها الاشرار والدنيا لعم

ري مزعج اشرارها اخيارها

And the wicked and world hurt her

The rain of its evils and goods troubles her

يا نفس خلي الحادثات لربها

فسعى بحكمته يقبل عثارها

Oh self, leave her matters to her Lord

For He has wisely undertaken her burden

وتعلمي فعل الجميل تحققاً

فالنفس تترك بعدها آثارها

And know to do good deeds in reality

For the self leaves behind its effects after it
