1. بِسِوى حِماكُم لَن تَراني مُقلة

    يا مَن لَهُم ودي القَديم بِلائِذِ

    In any sanctuary but yours, no eye will ever see me—

    O you to whom my longstanding affection belongs—as one seeking refuge.

  2. فَإِذا وَقَفت بِبابكم مُتَذَلِلاً

    هَذا مَقام المُستَجير العائِذِ

    Then, when I stand humbly at your door,

    This is the station of one seeking protection and refuge.
