We run from our defects
towards your Perfection
covered in the dust of sin
from the situation we've
put ourselves in
squandering our value
heedless of the suffering we cause
enshrouded in the shadows
of self delusion
victims of spiritual diffusion
O Allah transform these flaws
in the mirror of your Prophet's splendor
bless him in accordance to Your Grandeur
and praise him in accordance to Your Measure
and grant us the benefit of Your Pleasure
and reward us from the endlessness of Your Treasures
We run from the despised to your Beloved
we hunger and thirst give us Satisfaction
we are empty shells fill us with Glory!
annihilate our disobedience
sustain us with obedience
pen success in the preface and appendix of our story
and translate the rest
from what is worst to what is best
grant my waking eyes with the mercy reserved for the elect
and reanimate this heart of death
with the undying drink
the unlimited breath
scented with paradise
of creations best
and i will stand
and be fearless
