1. قُولاَ لَذَا الغَضبان يا ظالِماً

    يغضَبُ أَن أَدعُو عَلى ظَالِمي

    You two, tell this angry one: O wrongdoer,

    who grows angry that I pray against my oppressor,

  2. أَظنُّه أَنتَ وإِلاّ فَلِمْ

    تَخشى دُعائي دُونَ ذَا العَالَمِ

    I think you are he; otherwise, why

    do you alone in all this world fear my prayer?

  3. يَا ربِّ لا يُقْبَلْ عليهِ وإِن

    جَارَ دُعاءُ المُغرَمِ الهَائِمِ

    O my Lord, may it not be accepted against him, even

    if he has been unjust—the prayer of the lovesick, wandering lover.
