1. فُلك القُلوب نَسيم اللُطف سَيّرها

    مِن بَعد ما وَقَفت في ساحل المِحَن

    The breeze of grace set the vessels of hearts sailing,

    After they had stopped at the shore of tribulations.

  2. وَلَو يَشاء لأَجراها عَلى يَبس

    مِن غَير سفان أَحياناً وَلا سفن

    And if He so willed, He would make them sail upon dry land,

    At times without a boatman or ships.

  3. ما شاءَ كانَ تَعالى اللَهُ خالِقُنا

    مَولى وَما لَم يَشأ في الكَون لَم يَكُن

    Whatever He willed came to be—exalted is God, our Creator,

    Lord; and whatever He did not will in the universe did not come to be.
