1. Oh how many claim repentance to God
Yet in what they claim, they are liars
١. ألا كم مدعٍ للَه تائبٌ
وفيما يدعيه فهو كاذب
2. For the truly repentant have a path
That shows the way to their desires
٢. فإن التائبين لهم طريق
تدل على مواضيه الرغائب
3. And hatred for what they used to be
And love for what is duty to God
٣. وبغض للذي كانوا عليه
وحب للذي للَه واجب
4. And leaving off vices where wastelands lie
At night their hearts pierced with fear
٤. وهجران الكرى حيث البرايا
بهم مال الكرى والليل كاثب
5. Their tears falling like shooting stars
For their fear of God the lies did end
٥. تبيت قلوبهم فيها وجيب
لخوفهم وأدمعهم سواكب
