أَما آن أَن تَصحو العُقول مِن السُكر
وَيَطلَع صُبح التَوبة الصادق الفَجر
Is it not time for minds to awaken from intoxication
And for the dawn of sincere repentance to rise?
وَاِخلَص مِن نَفسي وَمِن شَهواتِها
وَأَبصر وَجه النَجح يُشرق بِالبَشَر
May I free myself from my soul and its desires
And see the face of success shining with good tidings.
وَإِذ هَبَ مِن حُزن الغِواية وَالهَوى
وَاِرتَع في رَوض المَواهب وَالأَجر
When sadness of temptation and passion passes away
And I graze in the meadow of gifts and rewards,
يُبَشرني الظَنّ الجَميل بِنعمةٍ
مِن اللَهِ لا تَنفك في السرّ وَالجَهر
Beautiful thoughts give me good news
Of a blessing from God that does not cease, secretly or openly.
