1. متّع جفوني بذاك المنظر الحسن

    واستبق روحي فان الجسم فيك فني

    Delight my eyelids with that beautiful sight.

    And keep my soul alive, for my body has perished for you.

  2. حنت للقياك روحي يا معذبها

    واستعذبت منك ما تلقى من المحن

    My soul has yearned to meet you, O its tormentor,

    And has found sweet the trials it suffers from you.

  3. مولاي علل عليلا انت ممرضه

    وارفق بقلب به سكناك يا سكني

    My lord, comfort a sick man whose illness you cause,

    And be gentle with a heart in which you dwell, O my solace.

  4. ديني ودنياك في مرآك قد جمعا

    يا من تجمع من بدر ومن غصن

    My faith and your world have been united in beholding you,

    O you who are composed of a full moon and a bough.

  5. اقبل بوجهك واقبل مهجتي بدلا

    ما للوصال سوى الارواح من ثمن

    Turn your face toward me, and accept my lifeblood in exchange;

    There is no price for union but souls.

  6. بما بعينيك من سحر فتنت به

    لبي ومن سقم اورثته بدني

    By the magic in your eyes, with which you have bewitched

    My reason, and by the sickness you bequeathed to my body,

  7. نعم بوجهك تطمع في عطفي وقلبك لي

    قاسٍ علي وكم قاسيت من محن

    Gladden me with your face; you hope for my affection, while your heart toward me

    Is cruel to me—and how many trials I have endured!

  8. وقد وهبتك روحي لا اسر بها

    فان قبلت تكن من اعظم المنن

    And I have given you my soul; I take no joy in it.

    So if you accept it, that will be among the greatest favors.
