1. فاللهُ يُجزي أبي خيرَ الجزاء بما

    حقاً بما من كتابِ الله عَلَّمَنِي

    So may God reward my father with the best recompense for what—

    truly, for what he taught me of God's Book.

  2. والله يسبغ نعماه فإن بنا

    فَقرٌ إلى وجودِهِ المأمُولِ وهو غني

    And may God lavish His blessings, for we have

    need of His hoped-for presence, while He is self-sufficient.

  3. والحمد لله ختماً بعد فاتحة

    ما لاحَ نَجمٌ وغَنَّى الطير في فنن

    And praise be to God at the close, after the opening,

    as long as a star shines and birds sing on a bough.
