أَنا عَبدٌ لِأَزرَقٍ هو عِندي

أَنا عَبدٌ لِأَزرَقٍ هو عِندي

في مَحَلٍّ يَجِلُّ عَن كُلِّ حَدِّ

I am a slave to a blue-eyed one who, to me,

I am a servant of the Blue One, he is with me

holds a station exalted beyond every limit.

In a position that is too exalted for any limit

جارَ في حُكمِهِ عَلى الطَرفِ مِنهُ

جارَ في حُكمِهِ عَلى الطَرفِ مِنهُ

رَمَدٌ فيهِ جُرأَةٌ وَتَعَدّي

رَمَدٌ فيهِ جُرأَةٌ وَتَعَدّي

Associated with his rule over all horizons

of an inflammation, audacious and transgressive.

Is an audacity and arrogance in him

فَأَرانا تَوَرُّداً في اِزرِقاقٍ

فَأَرانا تَوَرُّداً في اِزرِقاقٍ

كَعَقيقٍ يَشَفُّ عَن لازَوَردِ

كَعَقيقٍ يَشَفُّ عَن لازَوَردِ

So it showed us rosiness amid blueness,

So he showed us wandering in the blueness

like agate revealing lapis lazuli beneath.

Like carnelian alleviating without flowers
