1. لِأَبي نوحٍ رَغيفٌ

    أَبَداً في حِجرِ دايَه

    Abu Nuh has a loaf,

    forever in a nurse’s lap;

  2. بَرَّةٌ تَمسَحُهُ الدَه

    رَ بِكُمٍّ وَوِقايَه

    a kindly one, she wipes it for all time

    with a sleeve and a protective covering.

  3. وَتَعاويذٌ عَلَيهِ

    خُطَّ فيها بِعِنايَه

    And upon it are protective charms,

    in which was carefully inscribed:

  4. فَسَيَكفيكُهُمٌ اللَهُ

    إِلى آخِرِ الآيَه

    “So God will suffice you against them”—

    to the end of the verse.
