لا نجس له دخول

Representative Text

1 لا نجِسٌ له دخولْ
حيث يكون الله
عيناه تكرهان مَرْ
أى الرِّجس والخطاهْ

2 لا نجِسٌ له دخولْ
إلى سما الطُّهرِ
سوى الأُلى تسربلوا
بحلّةِ البرِّ

3 لا نجِسٌ له دخولْ
إلى سما الأقداسْ
سوى الأُلى تطهروا
من وضر الأدناسْ

4 كم دنسٍ يبعدنا
عن مسكن الأبرار
يا ربنا اغسلنا لكي
ننقى من الأوزارْ

5 دم ابنك الفادي الثمين
مُبَرِّر الأنام
يغسلنا جميعنا
من دنس الأثام
