لَقَد شَقيتُ شَقاءً لا اِنقِطاعَ لَهُ

لَقَد شَقيتُ شَقاءً لا اِنقِطاعَ لَهُ

إِن لَم أَفُز فَوزَةً تُنجي مِنَ النارِ

إِن لَم أَفُز فَوزَةً تُنجي مِنَ النارِ

I shall indeed suffer misery without end,

I have suffered unending misery,

If I do not win a triumph that saves me from the Fire.

Unless I attain salvation from the Fire.

وَالنارُ لَم يَنجُ مِن رَوعاتِها أَحَدٌ

وَالنارُ لَم يَنجُ مِن رَوعاتِها أَحَدٌ

إِلّا المُنيبُ بِقَلبِ المُخلِصِ الشاري

إِلّا المُنيبُ بِقَلبِ المُخلِصِ الشاري

And the Fire—no one has escaped its terrors,

And none has escaped the terrors of the Fire,

Except one who turns to God with the heart of a sincere man who sells himself to Him,

Save those with hearts repenting and sincere,

أَوِ الَّذي سَبَقَت مِن قَبلِ مَولِدِهِ

أَوِ الَّذي سَبَقَت مِن قَبلِ مَولِدِهِ

لَهُ السَعادَةُ مِن خَلّاقِها الباري

لَهُ السَعادَةُ مِن خَلّاقِها الباري

Or one for whom, before his birth, there was already ordained

Or those predestined before their birth,

Blessedness from its Creator, the Maker.

For happiness, by their Creator, The Just.
