1. Do not let my needs make you sad, O father Omar
For between gratitude and excuse, you are ahead
١. لا تَحزُنَنَّكَ حاجاتي أَبا عُمَرِ
فَأَنتَ مِنهُنَّ بَينَ الشُكرِ وَالعِذَرِ
2. Whatever came of them, God made easy
And whatever was delayed is fate's decree
٢. ما راجَ مِنها فَإِنَّ اللَهَ يَسَّرَهُ
وَما تَأَخَّرَ مَحمولٌ عَلى القَدَرِ
