إِنّي لأَحفَظُ وُدَّ مَن صافَيتُهُ

إِنّي لأَحفَظُ وُدَّ مَن صافَيتُهُ

وُدّي وَأَصفَحُ دائِباً عَن عَتبِهِ

وُدّي وَأَصفَحُ دائِباً عَن عَتبِهِ

Indeed, I preserve the affection of one to whom I have offered

I remember fondly those whose friendship I hold dear,

My sincere love, and continually overlook his reproach.

My friendship endures, I am always forgiving of reproach,

وَيَسوؤُني ما ساءَهُ وَيَسُرُّني

وَيَسوؤُني ما ساءَهُ وَيَسُرُّني

ما سَرَّهُ في بُعدِهِ أَو قُربِهِ

ما سَرَّهُ في بُعدِهِ أَو قُربِهِ

And what saddens him saddens me, and I am gladdened by

What displeases them displeases me, what gives them joy brings me joy,

What gladdens him, whether he is far away or near.

Whether they are near or far in their distance from me.
