فَضَّلتُ بِوُجودي فيكُم كَلَّ واجِدٍ
بِحُبِّكُم يا غايَةَ الحُسنِ وَالحُسنى
Through my being among you, I surpassed every ardent lover,
In loving you, O pinnacle of beauty and all that is fairest.
لِأَنَّ الوَرى هاموا بِصورَةِ حُسنِكُم
عَياناً وَبِالأَخبارِ هِمتُ بِكُم مَعنى
For all humankind fell madly for the image of your beauty,
At sight; through tidings, I loved you as pure essence.
