يا نَسيمَ الصَّبا عَلَى الأوْراقِ
لُدِغَتْ مُهْجَتي فهَلْ منْ رَاقِي
O breeze of the morning blowing on the leaves
My heart was stung, is there a healer?
فُرْقةُ اللّيْلِ جدّدَتْ ليَ عهْداً
كُنْتُ نُسِّيتُهُ بيَوْم الفِراقِ
The night’s parting renewed a pact
I had forgotten with the day of separation
آنَ يوْمُ الفِراقِ لكِنْ سَطَا
الخَلْقُ جَوْراً علَى النّفوسِ الرِّقاقِ
Now is the day of parting, but the people
Have dealt unjustly with the gentle souls
قدْ تقضّتْ عشْرٌ الى عُشْرِ عَشْرٍ
وتولّتْ رِكابُها فِي اسْتِباقِ
Ten has met ten, ten after ten
And their pillars have rushed to outpace
أيُّ عيْشٍ فيهِ قطَعْنا وأُنْسٍ
ساقَ شمْلَ السّرورِ أيَّ مَساقِ
What life in which we split, and intimacy
That brought the joy of the willow tree flow
شاهِدُ الحَقِّ حاضِرٌ ليْسَ يَخْفَى
وجْهُهُ والحَديثُ عذْبُ المَساقِ
The witness of truth is present, his face is not hidden
And the conversation is sweetly flowing
قدْ خلَعْنا نِعالَنا وافْتَرَشْنا
حضْرَةَ الجمْعِ والحَبيبُ السّاقي
We have taken off our slippers and sprawled out
In the assembly of the group and the sweet cupbearer
سِرْتَ يا لَيْلُ كيْفَ سارَ شَبابِي
فاحِمَ الجُنْحِ مُسْتَطِرَّ الرِّواقِ
You went on your way, O night, how my youth fared
So fold your wing, you who roam the hall
ثمّ جاءَ المَشيبُ كالصُّبْحِ إذْ جا
ءَكَ هَذا وذَا نَذيرُ افْتِراقِ
Then old age came like the morning when it came
This and that, warnings of separation
صحِبَ اللهُ حيْثُ سِرْتَ رِكاباً
قدْ سَرَى الطّيبُ منْهُ في الآفاقِ
May God accompany you wherever you went, walking
The perfume has emanated from him through the horizons
وتَرَى يا مودِّعَ الصّحْبِ عنْ غَبْ
طٍ وشُكْرٍ مَتى يكون التّلاقِي
And you see, O one bidding farewell to companionship, out of deprivation and gratitude, when will be the reunion
And with the happiness of the Imam, hopes draw near
وبسَعْدِ الإمامِ تدْنُو الأماني
ويُزَمُّ السّرورُ بعْدَ ائْتِباقِ
And joy is completed after fermentation
May God unite his group after the long lifetime
جمَعَ اللهُ شمْلَهُ بعْدَ طولِ العُمْ
رِ في عدْنٍ بالنّعيمِ الباقِي
In Eden, in eternal bliss
Whoever sees that existence is eternal
مَنْ رأى أنّ للوُجودِ دَواماً
فهْوَ في الخَلْقِ ما لهُ منْ خَلاقِ
He is in creation, nothing like Him
