Let me love you

These tears, they fall for you;

My heart, it yearns for you;

For no song can ever give solace to my qa’lb;

For no company can ever be a source of comfort for me;

If only you will, my Lord. If only you will.

The Sun shines, affirming Your glory;

The moon reflects Your unceasing mercy;

You are the Aww’al, the Aakhir;

The Za’hir, the Ba’tin;

I know my heart can pour out all this;

And I pray, my Lord;

I pray, that you grant me the love for You and You alone;

That befits my heart, my mind, my soul;

For the heart was made to love You and You alone;

Fill it with love for You, ya Rabb;

For the wordly attachment is bad for me, I know.

I know.

It distances me from my aims and ambitions;

My goals, my colossal expeditions;

Grant me the love of those whose love will bring me closer to You;

For You are my Wali — my protecting friend;

Don’t make me forget You, for I am never alone;

I know this heart yearns for you,

Let it love You even more.

I fear what they’d think about me;

Or if they’d like me the way I am;

But I know, I truly know,

You have made me perfect;

Just let me believe in that;

You are beautiful, you make all things beautiful;

Let me deluge in that, my Lord;

Let me believe in that, my Lord;

Let me believe in that -

Let me believe.

Believe,

In You.

For I love you, Ya Allah,

The Lord of the worlds;

I love You.

Now I know,

This heart was made for You.

Let me love You.
