1. This is the age we feared
And living to see its dark days.

2. Yet we have come to it and relate it without doubt
In the words of Ka'b and Ibn Mas'ud.

3. An age where we see all good completely rejected,
And every door to it appears blocked.

4. Truth and goodness we do not accept,
While evil and injustice cannot be repelled.

5. If this persists and nothing changes it
Its terrors will grow boundlessly.

6. And if people's hearts remain divided,
No dead will be mourned, no newborn greeted.
