1. كتبتمُ كثيراً ولَم تكتبوا

    كهذا الذي سُبلُهُ واضحَه

    You have written much, yet you have not written

    anything like this, whose paths are clear.

  2. فما اسمٌ جرى ذكره في الكتابِ

    فإن شئتَه فاقرَإِ الفاتحه

    So what name is mentioned in the Book?

    If you want it, then read al-Fātiḥah.

  3. ففيها مُصَحَّفُ مقلوبِهِ

    يعبِّر عن حالة صالحه

    For in it is a dot-altered form of its reversal,

    which expresses a favorable state.

  4. وليست بغاديةٍ فاعلموا

    ولكنِّها أبداً رائحه

    And it does not go forth in the morning—know this—

    but always goes forth in the evening.
