1. نُضَحي وَنُمسي كَبَني آدَمٍ

    وَما عَلى الغَبراءِ إِلّا سَفيه

    We pass our mornings and evenings like Adam’s children,

    And on the dusty earth there is none but a fool.

  2. فَنَسأَلُ العالِمَ إِنقاذَنا

    مِن عالَمِ السوءِ الَّذي نَحُن فيه

    So we ask the Knowing One to deliver us

    From the world of evil in which we dwell.
