Sol 6.1

  1. شَمَمْتُ قَمِيصَ اليُمْنِ وَالنَّاسُ سَاهِيَةْ

    لَهُ نَفْحَةٌ مَا زِلْتُ أَسْأَلُ مَا هِيَهْ

    I smelled the shirt of good fortune while the people were heedless.

    It has a waft of fragrance; I keep asking what it is.

  2. شَمَمْتُ بِرُوحِي لَا بِأَنْفِي عَبِيرَهُ

    فَثَارَتْ بَنَاتُ الفِكْرِ ثَوْرَةَ دَاهِيَةْ

    I smelled its fragrance with my soul, not with my nose.

    So the daughters of thought rose in a formidable uprising.

  3. تَطَرَّزْتُ وَإِذْ شَهْرُ الصِّيَامِ بَدَا لَنَا

    بِآيٍ مِنَ الخَيْرَاتِ لَا مُتَنَاهِيَةْ

    I embroidered myself as the month of fasting appeared to us,

    With signs of boundless goodness.

  4. أَتَى رَمَضَانُ يَا عِبَادُ فَشَمِّرُوا

    عَسَى أَنْ تَكُ الأَرْوَاحُ فِي الحَشْرِ زَاهِيَةْ

    Ramadan has come, O servants, so gird yourselves.

    May the souls be radiant at the Gathering.

  5. لَهُ تَنْحَنِي كُلُّ الشُّهُورِ كَرَامَةً

    فَمِنْ دُونِهِ أَيَّامُنَا جِدُّ وَاهِيَةْ

    All the months bow to it in honor.

    For without it, our days are very feeble.

  6. فَيَا نَبْضُ لَا تَشْرُدْ وَلَا تَكُ لَاهِياً

    لَهَا النَّفْسُ إِنْ عَنْهُ النَّوَابِضُ لَاهِيَةْ

    So, O pulse, do not stray, and do not be distracted.

    The soul grows distracted if the pulses are heedless of it.

  7. عَلَى مُسْلِمِي الدُّنْيَا يُطِلُّ بِوَجْهِهِ

    كَطَلَّةِ شَمْسٍ فِي دُجَى اللَّيْلِ بَاهِيَةْ

    It shows its face to the Muslims of the world,

    Like a radiant sun appearing in the darkness of night.

  8. إِذَا جَاءَ، جَاءَ العَفْوُ مَعْهُ مُلَازِماً

    فَيَشْدُو الجَوَى حُبّاً بِدُونِ كَرَاهِيَةْ

    When it comes, forgiveness comes with it as a constant companion.

    So yearning sings with love, without hatred.
