العَبدُ عَبدُكَ حَقّاً وَاِبنُ عَبدَيكَ

فَكَيفَ يَعصيكَ عَبدٌ طَوعُ كَفَّيكَ

This servant is truly your slave, and the son of your two bondservants,

So how could a thrall disobey you, when he is pliable within your hands?

إِن قالَ لَبَّيكَ لَم تَقنَع بِواحِدَةٍ

حَتّى يُضيفَ إِلى لَبَّيكَ سَعدَيكَ

If he calls out 'At your service,' you are not content with a single reply,

Until he adds to 'At your service,' the vow 'And for your delight.'

يا شاغِلي بِهَواهُ مُذ بُليتُ بِهِ

أَسخَنتَ عَيني أَقَرَّ اللَهُ عَينَيكَ

O you who have consumed me with passion since the moment I was afflicted by you,

You have brought burning tears to my eyes; may God grant cool solace to yours.
