This is an endeavour in which you will certainly not succeed. فَدَع ْ اَیُّھَا الْمَجْنُوْن ُ جُھْدًا مُضَیَّعًا ُفَدَع ْ اَیُّھَا الْمَجْنُوْن ُ جُھْدًا مُضَیَّعًا َ یُبَعْکَر اْل ٌ ٌ بَاسِق ْ نَخِیْل ُکَمِثْلِي َ یُبَعْکَر اْل ٌ ٌ بَاسِق ْ نَخِیْل کَمِثْلِي So—O insane man!—leave aside this vain effort; A tall date-palm like me shall not be cut down. ٖ ِ وَقَدْرِہ ِّٰ الْجَلِیْل هّٰلل ُ بِا اَتَکْفُر ٖ ِ وَقَدْرِہ ِّٰ الْجَلِیْل هّٰلل ُ بِا ُاَتَکْفُر َ اَقْدَر ِ اَنَّـك ُ کَالشَّیْطَان ُاَتَحْسَب َ اَقْدَر ِ اَنَّـك ُ کَالشَّیْطَان اَتَحْسَب Do you deny God and His might? Do you—like Satan—think that you are more powerful? ْ تَسُب ُّ وَمَا اَدْرِي ْ عَلٰی مَا تَسُبُّنِي ْ ُتَسُب ُّ وَمَا اَدْرِي ْ عَلٰی مَا تَسُبُّنِي ٍّ مُدَّمَر َ جَد ثَـأْر ُ ثَـأْرًا ُاَتَـطْلُب ٍّ مُدَّمَر َ جَد ثَـأْر ُ ثَـأْرًا اَتَـطْلُب You abuse me yet I know not why you do so; Have I killed any of your forefathers whom you seek to avenge? ٍ َ عَالَم ِّٰ مَرْجِـــع هّٰلل ِ ا ْ بِفَضْل تَرَانِي ٍ َ عَالَم ِّٰ مَرْجِـــع هّٰلل ِ ا ْ بِفَضْل ُتَرَانِي ٍ یُھَدِّر ْ حَمَام ٍ مِن َ قَفْر ْ عِنْد ُوَھَل ٍ یُھَدِّر ْ حَمَام ٍ مِن َ قَفْر ْ عِنْد وَھَل You can see that I am—by the grace of God Almighty—a refuge for the people; Do you ever see a pigeon singing merrily in an abandoned wilderness? ٌ ٌّ وَمُقْبَل ٌ شَقِي ْ عَبْد َ یَسْتَوِي اْل َ و ٌ ٌّ وَمُقْبَل ٌ شَقِي ْ عَبْد َ یَسْتَوِي اْل َ ُو ُلَـحَاك َ الْحَسِیْب ُ تَرَی الْقَبُوْل َ وَتُنْکِر لَـحَاك َ الْحَسِیْب ُ تَرَی الْقَبُوْل َ وَتُنْکِر The wretched and the accepted cannot be equal; May God reproach you, for you see my acceptance and yet deny me.
