ما لي أَراكَ إِلى الأَغيارِ مُفتَقِراً

ما لي أَراكَ إِلى الأَغيارِ مُفتَقِراً

وَأنتَ يا صاحِ سرُّ العالمينَ مَعا

وَأنتَ يا صاحِ سرُّ العالمينَ مَعا

Why do I see you dependent on others,

Why do I see you in need of strangers?

when you, my friend, are the secret of the worlds combined?

You, O possessor of the secret of the two worlds together.

نَزِّه وُجودَك أَن يَسمو إِلى أَحَدٍ

نَزِّه وُجودَك أَن يَسمو إِلى أَحَدٍ

إِلا الَّذي أَوجدَ الأَشياءَ مُختَرِعا

إِلا الَّذي أَوجدَ الأَشياءَ مُختَرِعا

Keep your being above aspiring to anyone

Sanctify your existence to transcend anyone,

except the One who brought things into being, originating them.

Except the One who originated all things as Creator.

ما شاءَ كانَ وَما لا فَهوَ ممتَنِعٌ

ما شاءَ كانَ وَما لا فَهوَ ممتَنِعٌ

فَدَع جَهولاً يُعاني الحِرصَ وَالطَمَعا

فَدَع جَهولاً يُعاني الحِرصَ وَالطَمَعا

Whatever He wills comes to be, and whatever He does not is impossible.

What He willed came to be, what not, it cannot be,

So leave the fool to struggle with greed and covetousness.

So leave the ignorant to suffer greed and vain hopes.
