To God belongs whatever He wills.
God's will be done
The decree has already gone forth.
Fate has already been sealed

A living being, beside the dust,
Alive with the dust
Has no lasting existence.
Everlasting he is not

وَالصُبحُ وَالمَساءُ
Calamities devour him,
Hardships consume him
And morning and evening.
As do morn and eve

وَاِتَّسَعَ الفَضاءُ
It has inevitably closed in on you,
Straitened is your abode
And the open expanse has widened.
While space expands forever
