هَذِهِ المَمنوعُ مِنها
وَأَنا المُحتَجُّ عَنها
This is forbidden to me
This is the very thing that is forbidden,
While I protest against it
And I am the one who argues in its defense:
ما لَها تَحرُمُ في الدُن
يا وَفي الجَنَّةِ مِنها
Why forbid it in this world
Why is it made unlawful in this world,
When in Paradise it awaits
When in Paradise, it flows in abundance?
