1. فؤادي له في رتبة الحب ما نوى

    وبالقرب مني بدلت ساعة النوى

    My heart, in the station of love, has what it sought.

    And the hour of separation was exchanged for nearness to me.

  2. وصحب عليهم حاكم العقل قد حوى

    يقولون لي ضيعت عمرك في الهوى

    And companions over whom reason's judge has gained sway

    Say to me, "You have wasted your life in passion."

  3. وما فاتني شيء إذا كنت ألقاكم

    أحباي إني المستهام المجردُ

    And I have missed nothing if I meet you.

    My beloveds, I am the love-distraught one, stripped of attachments.

  4. وأنتم كرام ما على يدكم يدُ

    ووالله ما لي في يميني ترددُ

    And you are noble; no hand is above yours.

    And by God, I do not waver in my oath.

  5. لئن كان قوم بالزوايا تقيدوا

    فإني أرى كل الوجود زواياكم

    If indeed some people have bound themselves to the lodges,

    Then I see all existence as your lodges.
