1. How can one escape the decree of Allah
Or how can an oblivious denier repudiate the Exalted

2. The rule of God, His decree is unavoidable
Great is our Lord, beyond any equal

3. He decreed and called out a soul protected by piety
And granted it the highest sublime station

4. Endowed it with gardens of eternity by His grace
And granted it great glory therein

5. So He saw it in His pleasure, and said in chronicle
Mahfouz revels in the gardens of Allah
