Yusuf, Sami - 'Araftul Hawa Lyrics






I only knew love when I knew love of Thee,
I sealed up my heart against Thy enemy.
I stood long in converse with Thee, who doth see
My heart’s inner secrets, but Thou I don’t see.

My love is twin loves, yet the twain are for Thee,
The first’s for Thy love, and the other’s for Thee.
And as for the first, which is love of Thy love:
Remembrance complete, not distracted from Thee,
Remembrance complete, not distracted from Thee.

‘Araftul-hawā mudh ‘araftu hawāk
Wa-’aghlaqtu qalbī ‘alā man ‘ādāk
(I only knew love when I knew love of Thee,
I sealed up my heart against Thy enemy.)

And as for the second: my true love of Thee,
I see Thou as present in all that I see.
All praise to Thy name, and no praises for me,
For Thine is the glory in all unity,
For Thine is the glory in all unity.

‘Araftul-hawā mudh ‘araftu hawāk
Wa-’aghlaqtu qalbī ‘alā man ‘ādāk
(I only knew love when I knew love of Thee,
I sealed up my heart against Thy enemy.)

’Uḥibbuka ḥubbayni, ḥubba l-hawā
Wa-ḥubban li-’annaka ’ahlu l-lidhāk

[My love is twin loves, yet the twain are for Thee,
The first’s for Thy love, and the other’s for Thee.]


Fa-’amma l-ladhī huwa ḥubbul-hawā
Fa-shughlī bi-dhikrika ‘an man siwāk

[And as for the first, which is love of Thy love:
Remembrance complete, not distracted from Thee.]


Wa-’amma l-ladhī ’anta ’ahlu l-lahu
Fa-lastu ’ara l-kawna ḥattā ’arāk

[And as for the second: my true love of Thee,
I see Thou as present in all that I see.]


Fa-la l-ḥamdu fī dhā wa-lā dhāka lī
Wa-lākin laka l-ḥamdu fī dhā wa-dhāk

[All praise to Thy name, and no praises for me,
For Thine is the glory in all unity.]

    عَرَفْتُ الهَوى مُذ عَرَفْتُ هواك
    وأغْلَقْتُ قَلْبي عَلىٰ مَنْ عَاداكْ
    وقُمْتُ اُناجِيـكَ يا مَن تـَرىٰ
    خَفايا القُلُوبِ ولَسْنا نراك
    أحِبُكَ حُبَيْنِ حُبَ الهَـوىٰ
    وحُبْــاً لأنَكَ أهْـل ٌ لـِذَاك
    فأما الذي هُوَ حُبُ الهَوىٰ
    فَشُغْلِي بذِكْرِكَ عَمَنْ سـِواكْ
    وامّـا الذي أنْتَ أهلٌ لَهُ
    فَلَسْتُ أرىٰ الكَوْنِ حَتىٰ أراكْ
    فلا الحَمْدُ في ذا ولا ذاكَ لي
    ولكنْ لكَ الحَمْدُ فِي ذا وذاك

  81. L.... R....

    rabiaa all adawiyah was Egyptian, thus the name of Midan radiaa all adawiyyah, where the massacre of the Egyptian coop military on the civilians, and she never said "I'm a Sufi saint!" there are no saints in Islam, she was a faithful women who believed in Islam and practiced it like the women sahabas. I appreciate your work, but stop over idealizing and Sufiating stuff. pls, Islam is not like this

    L.... R....

    AFAIK, none of those history refers to as "Sufi saints" ever said "I'm a Sufi saint" either. Such labels are conferred by others, most often posthumously.
