lyrics

يا أَيُّها البَيْتُ العَتِيقُ تَعالى

نُورٌ لَكُم بِقُلوبِنا يَتَلالا

أَشْكُو إِلَيْكَ مَفاوِزاً قد جُبْتُها

أَرْسَلتُ فيها أَدْمُعي إرْسالا

أُمْسِي وَأُصْبِحُ لا أَلَذُّ براحةٍ

أَصِلُ البُكورَ وَأَقْطَعُ الآصالا

إِنّ النِّياقَ وَإنْ أَضَرَّ بِها الوَجَى

تَسْرِي وَترْفِلُ في السُّرَى إِرْقالا

لهذي الرِّكابُ إِلَيْكُمُ سارَتْ بنا

شَوْقاً وَما تَرْجو بِذاك وِصالا

قَطَعَتْ إِلَيْكَ سَباسِباً وَرِمالاً

وَجْدًا وَما تَشْكُو لِذاكَ كَلالا

ما تَشْتَكِي أَلَمَ الجَوَى وَأَنا الَّذي

أَشْكُو الكَلالَ لَقَدْ أَتَيْتُ مُحالا



O ancient temple, there hath rose for You a light that gleams in our hearts.

I complain to Thee of the deserts which I crossed, where I let my tears flow unchecked.

Taking no joy in rest at dawn or dusk, continuing from morn to morn and passing from eve to eve.

Truly, the camels, even if they suffer from foot soreness, journey by night and make haste in their journey.

These beasts of burden carried us to you with eager desire, though they did not hope to attain it.

They traversed wildernesses and well nigh rainless lands, impelled by passion, but they did not therefore complain of fatigue.

They did not complain of the anguish of love, and ’tis I who complain of fatigue.

Indeed, I have claimed something absurd.



Words: Muhammad Ibn Arabi
