أتيتك نادماً أسِفاً حزيناً
جزوعاً أرتجي عفواً وحلما
I have come to you remorseful, regretful, and sorrowful,
distraught, hoping for pardon and clemency.
فإن تعفُ فمن شيم وخُلقِ
وإن عاقبتَ ماعاقبتَ ظلما
For if you pardon, it springs from your qualities and character;
and if you punish me, you will not have punished me unjustly.
وإني قد دخلتُ إلى حماكَ
ومن دخل الحمى لا شك يُحمى
Indeed, I have entered your sanctuary,
and whoever enters the sanctuary is surely granted protection.
Sol 5.6
