Nasamātu hawāka

نَسَمَاتُ هَوَاكَ لَهَا أَرَجُ
تَحْيَا وَتَعِيشُ بِهَا الْمُهَجُ
مَا النَّاسُ سِوَى قَوْمٍ عَرَفُوك
وَغَيْرُهُمُ هَمَجٌ هَمَجُ
دَخَلُوا فُقَرَاءَ إِلَى الدُّنْيَا
وَكَمَا دَخَلُوا مِنْهَا خَرَجُوا
قَوْمٌ فَعَلُوا خَيْرًا فَعَلَوْا
وَعَلَى دَرَجِ الْعُلْيَا دَرَجُوا
يَا بَدْرُ بِذُلٍّ لَنْ نَبْرَحْ
عَنْ بَابِ الْحِبِّ فَهَلْ نَلِجُ
فَمَتَى بِوِصَالِكَ يَا أَمَلِي
أَلْحَانُ الْحُبِّ لَهَا هَرَجُ
شَرِبُوا بِكُؤُوسِ تَفَكُّرِهِمْ
مِنْ صَرْفِ هَوَاكَ وَمَا مَزَجُوا
فَهِمُوا الْمَعْنَى فَهُمُ مَعْنَى
وَبِذِكْرِ اللَّهِ لَهُمْ لَهِجُوا

Nasamātu hawāka lahā arajun
Taḥyā wa taʿīshu bihā al-muhajū
Mā an-nāsu siwā qawmin ʿarafūka
Wa ghayruhum hamajun hamajū
Dakhalū fuqarāʾa ilā ad-dunyā
Wa kamā dakhalū minhā kharajū
Qawmun faʿalū khayran faʿalaw
Wa ʿalā darji al-ʿulyā darajū
Yā badru badhaltu lan nabraḥ
ʿAn bābi al-ḥubbi fahal naliju
Famatā biwiṣālika yā amalī
Alḥānu al-ḥubbi lahā harajū
Sharibū bikuʾūsi tafakkurihim
Min ṣarfi hawāka wa mā mazajū
Fahimū al-maʿnā fahum maʿnā
Wa bidhikri Allāhi lahum lahajū

The breeze of your air has a fragrance,
By which hearts live and thrive.
People are only those who know you,
And the rest are mere savages.
They entered this world poor.
And as they came, so they left.
A people who did good deeds,
And climbed the steps of glory.
O full moon, you have given; we will not depart
From the door of love, so shall we enter?
When will I attain your union, my hope?
The melodies of love echo joyfully.
They drank from the cups of their contemplation,
Purely from your love, unmixed.
They understood the meaning—they are the meaning, and in the remembrance of Allah,
their tongues are constantly engaged.
