يا خالِصَ الجودِ يا مَن لا يُبَهرِجُهُ

يا خالِصَ الجودِ يا مَن لا يُبَهرِجُهُ

مَطلُ الغَريمِ وَلا التَسويفُ بِالدَينِ

مَطلُ الغَريمِ وَلا التَسويفُ بِالدَينِ

O you of unalloyed generosity, O you who are not debased

O essence of generosity, whom persistence of an enemy nor procrastination in repaying debt can perturb,

By a debtor’s stalling or postponement of debt repayment.

You took pleasure in the garment Allah gave you to wear, so you set about embroidering it with decorations but no dishonor,

تَهَنَّ بَزّاً كَساكَ اللَهُ حُلَّتَهُ

تَهَنَّ بَزّاً كَساكَ اللَهُ حُلَّتَهُ

فَرُحتَ تَنسُجُها زَيناً بِلا شَينِ

فَرُحتَ تَنسُجُها زَيناً بِلا شَينِ

Enjoy the cloth—God has clothed you in its robe;

And people see in you no thought of covetousness. So the like of your eye is never devoid of the evil eye.

So you set about weaving it, an adornment without blemish.

وَلا يَرى الناسُ فِكراً مِنكَ في رَمَدٍ

وَلا يَرى الناسُ فِكراً مِنكَ في رَمَدٍ

فَمِثلُ عَينِكِ لا تَخلو مِنَ العَينِ

فَمِثلُ عَينِكِ لا تَخلو مِنَ العَينِ

Nor do people see any concern in you over inflamed eyes,

For an eye like yours is never free of the evil eye.
