1. I do not see happiness in amassing wealth,
But the devout are the fortunate ones.
١. وَلَستُ أَرى السَعادَةَ جَمعَ مالٍ
وَلَكِنَّ التَقيَّ هُوَ السَعيدُ
2. Piety towards God is the best provision to hoard,
And with God there is more in store for the devout.
٢. وَتَقوى اللَهِ خَيرُ الزادِ ذُخراً
وَعِندَ اللَهِ لِلأَتقى مَزيدُ
3. What is bound to come will come soon enough,
But what has passed is gone for good.
٣. وَما لا بُدَّ أَن يَأَتي قَريبٌ
وَلَكِنَّ الَّذي يَمضي بَعيدُ
