Your yesterday passed away, amended and a martyr,

مضى أمسك الماضي شهيدا معدلا

1. Your yesterday passed away, amended and a martyr,
And after it came a new day upon you.

١. مَضى أَمسُكَ الماضي شَهيداً مُعَدَّلاً
وَأَعقَبَهُ يَومٌ عَلَيكَ جَديدُ

2. So if yesterday you committed a misdeed,
Make amends with goodness while you are praised.

٢. فَإن كُنتَ بِالأَمسِ اِقتَرَفتَ إِساءةً
فَثَنِّ بِإِحسانٍ وَأَنتَ حَميدُ

3. For if you make your day profitable, its benefit
Returns to you, and yesterday of the past will not come back.

٣. فَيَومُكَ إِن أَغنَيتَهُ عادَ نَفعه
عَلَيكَ وَماضي الأَمسِ لَيسَ يَعودُ

4. And do not postpone the doing of good to another day,
Lest tomorrow comes while you are lost.

٤. وَلا تُرجِ فِعلَ الخَيرِ يَوماً إِلى غَدٍ
لَعَلَّ غَداً يَأتي وَأَنتَ فَقيدُ

5. When death misses you and encounters
Your bosom friend, know that it will return.

٥. إِذا ما المَنايا أَخطَأَتكَ وَصادَفَت
حَميمَكَ فَاِعلَم أَنَّها سَتَعودُ
