رفَعتُ في شاطئ الآمالِ أشرعتي

وحُسنُ ظني بربّ الناسِ بوصلتي

I raised my sails at the shore of hopes

And my good assumption of the Lord of mankind was my compass

مَضيْتُ في رحلةِ الأيامِ مُبتسماً

وكانت الغيمةُ البيضاءُ مؤنِسَتي

I went on the journey of days smiling

And the white cloud was my companion

وقلتُ ياخالقي أنتَ الأمانُ فكم

أمّنْتَني بشعورٍ فاقَ أخْيِلتي

And I said, oh my Creator, you are safety, so how

You gave me a feeling that exceeded my imagination

لطالما سُدّتِ الأبوابُ أزمِنةً

كأنّ أقفالها تهوى مُعانَقتي

For long the doors were closed as times

As if their locks wished to embrace me

فكان فضلُكَ يأتيني ويغمُرني

يرُدّ لي بسمةً ماتتْ على شفتي

So your grace would come to me and immerse me

Restore to me a smile that died on my lips

رغمَ الذي حلّ مِن دمعٍ ومِن ألمٍ

تبقى فضائل ربي بين أوردتي

Despite what came of tears and of pain

The virtues of my Lord remain between my veins

عسى الذي حقّقَ الرؤيا ليوسفهِ

يُريحُ قلبيَ في تحقيق أمنِيتي

Perhaps He who fulfilled the vision for His Joseph

Will comfort my heart in fulfilling my wish
