At the door of the Beloved, I set down my saddle
In hopes that I will be blessed with communion and union

The people of Allah are the gates of gifts
and the means of (Divine) manifestation and perfection

O moon that shines bright in this era
and its light overwhelms my heart and mind
طَرِيحٌ فِي حِمَاكُمْ مُسْتَجِيرٌ
مِنَ النَّفْسِ وَمِنْ أَسْوَاءِ فِعْلِي

I throw myself into your sanctuary, seeking asylum
from my lower self and evil deeds

wa naẓrah wuddikum tuḥyī fuādī
wa ʿaṭfu ḥanānikum yuṣliḥu kullī
A gaze of Your love brings life to my heart
and the gentleness of your compassion rectifies me entirely
فَمُدُّوا الكَفَّ لِلمَوْلَى تَعَالَى
وَمَنْ يُعْطِي السَّؤُولَ أَجَلَّ سُولِي

So, raise your hands to the Exalted Master
Who fulfills the greatest requests to those who constantly ask

وَنَادُوا مَنْ يُجِيبُ مَنْ يُنَادِي
وَلَا يُمْنَعُ رَاجٍ فَيْضَ فَضْلِهِ
wa nādū man yujību man yunādī
wa lā yumnaʿu rājin fayḍa faḍlihi
And call out to He who answers the caller
never withholding the outpouring of His bounty from the one who hopes in Him
وَعَرْضٌ مِنْكُمُ فِي خَيْرِ وَصْلٍ
عَلَى طـٰـهَ يُحَقِّقْ كُلَّ سُولِي
wa ʿarḍun minkumu fī khayri wa ṣlin
ʿalā ṭāha yuḥaqqiq kulla sūlī
Connecting to Ṭāhā, during the greastest union,
will bring to reality all that I ask
