Don't break the heart of the one
Who loves you and is crazed for you

O sun,
Heaven of the hearts
Master O Master

Dar āsemānhā

Nūre to peydā
In the heavens
Towards the boundless
Your light is visible

Like the pilgrims who circumambulate the House of God
O my all, my beloved
Bīm ba dawrī to ‘azīzam,
I'd circle around you, my dearest one,
Yā Nabī, Yā Shafī’
O Prophet of God, O Intercessor!
