lam atawakka' abadan annaka satadhhabu bihathihi as‑sur'a
wa ru'yatuka fi ahdhan shakhs akhar tu'limuni akthar mimma astahiq
wa a'tarif anna dhikra ibtisamatika taja'aluna nabtasim khafatan
hatta law ja'alaka tarqusu, fa anta ma zalta tahtafizu bidhahikatina fi qalbik

lam atawakka' an araaka ma'a shakhs akhar
wa lakin rubbama hadha khayr lana, fa laysa hunaka dhanb 'ala ahad
at‑tadhakkurat tattabi'una, wa ma'a dhalik namshi fi tariqina
hubb jadid, fursa jadida, rubbama hadha huwa al‑qadar

tilka al‑w'uood allati tuhaddithuhu biha mazalat tusmi'uni fi qalbi
wa law kuntu abtasim, fa inna hunaka tilka al‑wadha'a as‑saghira allati la tazal tu'limuni
al‑hubb ghareeb ahyanan, yal'abu bina biduni tahdheer
wa ma'a kulli shay', atamanna laka sa'ada akbar min ayyi jannah

lam atawakka' an araaka ma'a shakhs akhar
wa lakin rubbama hadha khayr lana, fa laysa hunaka dhanb 'ala ahad
at‑tadhakkurat tattabi'una, wa ma'a dhalik namshi fi tariqina
