1. لمّا بدا منكَ القبول

    أخرجتُ من سجن الأسا

    When your acceptance became clear,

    I was brought out of sorrow's prison,

  2. وزجَّ بي عين الوصول

    وصرتُ بك مؤنسا

    And thrust into the very heart of union.

    And through you I found comfort.

  3. ولست من قلبي تزول

    بينَ الصباحِ والمسا

    And you never leave my heart,

    Between morning and evening.

  4. ألنّظره فيك يا جميل

    نعيش بها عيشا رغَد

    A glance at you, O beautiful one—

    Through it we live a life of ease.

  5. أنت المحجّه والدليل

    من ذا يطيق عنك البعاد

    You are the clear path and the guide.

    Who can bear separation from you?

  6. يا راحة القلبِ العليل

    فيكَ اجتمع كلّ المراد

    O solace of the ailing heart,

    In you all that is desired has come together.

  7. أرقَدتَ في قلبي هواك

    وقلتَ لي إيّاك تبوح

    You put my love for you to sleep within my heart,

    And told me, 'Beware of revealing it.'

  8. أم كيف لي أرى سواك

    وأنتَ لي جسمٌ وروح

    Or how could I see anything but you,

    When you are body and soul to me?

  9. ولا يخفى نورُ سناك

    وقدّ بدا للناس يلوح

    Nor is the light of your radiance hidden,

    And it has appeared to people, shining.
