1. May God lengthen my life and double my patience
As the clouds pass by with rain

2. The days battle me as if
They demand compensation for all those who died young

3. I counted my times and noticed their goodness
The best of them passed in the dream of my life

4. When I go to count them to know their ease
I miss my life and the fate to hardship

5. Whenever you consider life for what was pure
You will find a man who lived a lifetime without life

6. And here I am in the darkness of nights counting
Its stars from where no reckoner knows

7. As if in my worry throughout the night I am riding
On a far reaching orbit forever travelling

8. I ascend in glory and my determination
Is to the tablet to read it the surah of ease

9. And keep it from the essence I smelled its light
From its distance the extent of planets and the full moon
