شفاك الله مِنْ دائِكْ

وعدَّاه لأَعْدائكْ

May Allah heal you of your illness

And make it fall upon your enemies

وأَبرى مِنك بالبرءِ

قلوباً لأَودَّائك

And free those who wish you well

From the evils that afflict you

فَخَبرني بإِصْباح

ك في الخير وإِمْسَائك

So tell me at dawn

Of your wellbeing and evening

وطيّب أَنفساً تَصْبُو

إِلى طيِّب أَنْبَائك

And gladden hearts that pour

Towards the good news of you

فقَلْبي بات قد أَعْيا

من الهمِّ كإِعْيَائك

For my heart has been worn out

By worries to the point of exhaustion

أخٌ في الله يَهْوَاكَ

ويَجْرِي خَلف أَهْوَائك

A brother in God who adores you

And follows after your passions

ويدعو الله في السرِّ

وفي الجَهْرِ بإِبقائك

And prays to God secretly

And openly for your eternity

وَلَوْ لَمْ يَرْعَ لِلْقُرْبَى

رَعَى حُرْمَة آلاَئِك

And if he doesn't watch over kin

He would revere your forefathers

وقد ضمَّكما أَصْلٌ

كريمٌ شَابِكٌ شَائِك

For you have been bound by

A thick and intertwined noble origin

وإِن غِبْتَ فما غَابَ

فؤَادِي بين أَفْنَائِك

And if you are absent, still

My heart does not stray from your absence

وعُذْرِي إِنْ يَكُنْ ذَنْباً

فَقَابِلْهُ بإِغْضَائِك

And my excuse, if it is a sin

Then counter it with your disdain

فَكَم مِنْ غَائِب عَنْكَ

وَتَلْقَاهُ بِلُقْيَائِك

For how many are absent from you

That you meet with your gathering

وكم من حُضَّرٍ عنْد

ك لَيْسُوا مِنْ أَحبَّائِك

And how many present with you

Are not among those you love
