وتلك أشقُّ الكُلْفتَينِ عليكا
Give to me, or direct me to someone who will give to me;
Grant me or guide me to one who will grant me,
and that is the harder of the two burdens upon you.
And that is more difficult for you than both.

تُنيلُ يداهُ بعد منعِ يديكا
When, I wonder, will you find a single man
If only you knew - are you alone able
whose hands will give after your hands have withheld?
To grant what your hands refuse to grant me?

and all the world's people point toward you.
And the needs of all people rest with you.

My hand is forfeit to any man seeking bounty,
My hands remain tied from attaining my wants
if ever he gains it without gaining it from you.
Unless you allow it - it cannot be attained.
