English translation
Blessed are those who have triumphed through God
Those who saw in creation none but Him
He drew them near to Him by trying them
And they stripped the spirit in His heights
They turn to no other than Him
How could they, when they have beheld His sublimity
He lifted the veils of separation from them
And they breathed in the breath of His Love
He unveiled His light and His beauty to them
So they said: Ya Huwa Ya Huw!
Arabic text
يا سَـعـدَ قـوم بالله فـا زوا
ولم يَرَوا في الورَى سِواهُ
قرَّبـهـم مـنـه واِجـتـبـاهـم
فنـزَّهـوا الـفِـكرَ في عُـلاهُ
ليسَ لهم للسِّوى الـتِـفاتُ
كَيفَ وَ قد شاهدوا سـنـاهُ
أزالَ حُجبَ الغِطاءِ عنهم
فاِستنشَـقـوا نَـفحَة هَـواهُ
تجلـَّى بالنـور و الـبَـهاءِ
لهم فـقالوا ׃ يا هُوَ يا هُو
لا إله إلا الله
سيِّـدُنا مُـحَـمَّــد رسول الله
