يَا مَنْ أَتَتْنِي بِلا سِلْكٍ رِسَالَتُهُ

مَنْظُومَةً نَظْمَ إِبْداعٍ وَإِتْقَانِ

O you whose wireless message reached me

Arranged with the rhythm of creativity and mastery

للهِ زَفْرَةُ مُشْتَاقٍ تَنَاقَهَلَا

رَحْبُ الأَثِيرِ بِخَافِي النَّبْضِ رَنَّانِ

The sigh of a longing one who conversed with it

The vast ether echoed in the beats of my heart

قَرَأْتُهَا فَشَجَانِي صَوْتُ بَاعِثهَا

كَأَنَّ فِي رَأْيِ عَيْنِي سَمْعَ آذَانِي

I read it, so the voice of its sender shook me

As if in my mind’s eye, my ears heard

جَاءَتْ بِمِصْدَاقِ وُدٍّ غَيْرِ مُؤْتَشَبٍ

لَوْ رَابَنِي حِسِّي وَإِيمَانِي

It came with the sincerity of uncompromised love

Even if my senses and faith doubted me
