1. يا ربّ غصنُ وجودي أنت غارسُهُ

    فماد في روضة التوحيد مائسُهُ

    O Lord, the branch of my existence You have planted

    So it has flourished in the garden of oneness

  2. سقيته ماءَ فيض من عطاك فهل

    ترى يبدّل بعد الغصّ يابسه

    You have watered it with the water of Your bounty, so will

    You see it change after being a fresh branch, O Lord?

  3. حاشاك ربّي وقد ربّيتَه فربا

    وأنت في روضة الأذكار حارسه

    Never, my Lord, for You have nurtured it, so it grew

    And You are in the garden of remembrance its keeper

  4. فكم عليه صبا الأسحار هبّ وكم

    حلّته أنفاسه منها نفائسه

    So many dawns have poured upon it, and how many

    Precious breaths have descended on it and blessed it
