1. When I heard of your abundant generosity,
And what is hoped for from your bounty,
١. لَمَّا سَمِعْتُ بِفَضْلِ جُودِكُمُ
وَبما يُرامُ مِنَ النَّدى مِنْكُمْ
2. I came knocking at the door of your favor.
So give in charity, to ward off affliction from yourselves.
٢. وَافيْتُ أطرقُ بابَ فَضْلِكُمُ
فَتَصدَّقُوا دُفِع البلا عَنْكُمْ
