لاmay not نَالَكَbefall you ماthat which تَراهُyou see it بيin me منof ألمِpain
لا نَالَكَ ما تَراهُ بي من ألمِ
O you, with whose love my flesh and blood were mingled,
O you by whose love my flesh and blood were enslaved
May the pain you see in me never befall you.
You cannot attain what you see in me of anguish
إنْif لمdo not تَهَبِgrant الحَيَاةَlife فيin وصلِكَunion with you لِيto me
إنْ لم تَهَبِ الحَيَاةَ في وصلِكَ لِي
فَامنُنْthen bestow your favor كرَماًgenerously ورُدَّنِيand return me للعدَمِto nothingness
فَامنُنْ كرَماً ورُدَّنِي للعدَمِ
If you do not grant me life in union with you,
If you do not bestow life upon me through your union
Then, in your generosity, show me kindness and return me to nothingness.
Then kindly do me a favor and return me to nonexistence
