1. تَنَبَّأَ فيكَ قَلبي فَاِستَرابَت

    بِهِ قَومٌ وَعَمَّهُمُ الضَلالُ

    My heart prophesied of you, but was doubted

    By a people whom error engulfed.

  2. وَصَدَّهُمُ الهَوى أَن يُؤمِنوا بي

    وَقالوا إِنَّ مُعجِزَهُ مُحالُ

    Passion kept them from believing in me,

    And they said, 'His miracle is impossible.'

  3. فَمُذ سَلَّمتَ سَلَّمَتِ البَرايا

    إِلَيَّ وَقيلَ كَلَّمَهُ الغَزالُ

    But once you greeted me, all creation yielded

    To me, and it was said, 'The gazelle spoke to him.'
