لي حبيب أزورُ في الخَلَوات
حاضرٌ غائبٌ عن اللحظَاتما تراني أُصغي إليه بسري
كَي أعي ما يقُول من كلمات؟كلماتٌ من غير شكل و لا نقط
و لا مثل نغمة الأصواتفكأني مخاطب إياه
على خاطري بذاتي لذاتيحاضرٌ غائبٌ قريب بعيد
و هو لم تَحْوه رسوم الصفاتهو أدنَى من الضمير إلى الوهم
و أخفَى من لائح الخَطَرَات

so in want of you

at You
right before their eyes,
unseeing, unseeing,
so very blind.

and it is completely in Your hands."

رَأَيْتُ رَبِّي بِعَيْنِ قَلْــبِي ::: فَقُلْتُ لاَ شَكَّ أَنْتَ أَنْـتَ
أَنْتَ الَّذِي حُزْتَ كُلَّ أَيْنٍ ::: فَحَيْثُ لاَ أَيْنَ ثَمَّ أَنْــتَ
I saw my Lord with the Eye of my heart,
And I said: Truly there is no doubt that it is You.
It is You that I see in everything;
And I do not see You through anything (but You)
