أَيا هَمَّ نَفسي مِنَ العالَمينَ
وَمَن لَيسَ يَرعى لِوَصلي ذِماما
O my soul, keep away from both worlds
And whoever does not care for my connection, do not mind him
لِماذا تَكَرَّهتِ رَدَّ السلامِ
أَيُفسِدُ ذاكَ عَلَيكِ الصِياما
Why do you dislike returning greetings?
Does that spoil fasting for you?
وَوَاللَهِ ما يَسَعُ المُسلِمي
نَ في الدينِ أَن لا يَرُدّوا السَلاما
By Allah, it is not possible for a Muslim
In religion, that he does not return greetings
فَمَن كانَ أَفتاكِ حَتّى رَأَي
تِ قَتلي حَلالاً وَوَصلي حَراما
So who was the one who gave you a verdict until you saw
My killing as lawful and my connection as forbidden
تَحَرَّجتِ أَن تَصِلي في الصِيا
مِ تَقوى وَرُمتِ لَقَتلي مَراما
You felt embarrassed to connect in fasting
With piety but you intended for my killing as a goal
فَما تَبتَغينَ بِطولِ الصِيا
مِ إِذا أَنتِ أَورَدتِ نَفسي الحِماما
What do you want with lengthening the fasting
If you push my soul towards destruction
