فَقَدْthen indeed أَتَيْتُI have come بِهِwith it أَسْعَىI hasten عَلَىon قَدَمِيmy foot
فَقَدْ أَتَيْتُ بِهِ أَسْعَى عَلَى قَدَمِي
My lord, my lord, if offering my blood pleases you,
My Master, my Master, if pleasing you means my blood is shed
Then indeed I have come with it, hastening on foot.
Then I have come rushing to offer it on foot
وَإِنْand if تَعَاظَمَhas grown grievous ذَنْبٌa sin قَدْindeed جنَتْهُcommitted it يَدِيmy hand
وَإِنْ تَعَاظَمَ ذَنْبٌ قَدْ جنَتْهُ يَدِي
وَطَالَand lasted long قَرْعِيmy striking عَلَيْهِover it السِّنَّthe tooth مِنْfrom نَدَمِremorse
وَطَالَ قَرْعِي عَلَيْهِ السِّنَّ مِنْ نَدَمِ
And if a sin committed by my hand has grown grievous,
And if a sin has been committed, which my own hand nurtured
And I have long gnashed my teeth over it in remorse,
And my remorse for it has long persisted and pained me
فَهَبْهُthen pardon it لِيfor me وَاغْتَفِرْand forgive مَاwhatever كَانَthere was مِنْof خَطَإٍerror
فَهَبْهُ لِي وَاغْتَفِرْ مَا كَانَ مِنْ خَطَإٍ
وَزَلَّةٍand lapse وَارْعَand honor لِيfor me حُبِّيmy love عَلَىin view of الْقِدَمِlong standing
وَزَلَّةٍ وَارْعَ لِي حُبِّي عَلَى الْقِدَمِ
Then pardon it for me, and forgive every error
Then grant me its forgiveness, and pardon any wrong
And lapse; and honor, for my sake, my longstanding love.
Or stumbling, and tend to my love, for it is lasting
