1. أَعارَكَ مالَهُ لِتَقومَ فيهِ

    بِطاعَتِهِ وَتَقضِيَ فَضلَ حَقِّه

    He lent you His wealth so that you might use it

    in obedience to Him and fulfill His exalted claim.

  2. فَلَم تَشكُرهُ نِعمَته وَلَكِن

    قَويتَ عَلى مَعاصيهِ بِرِزقِه

    Yet you did not thank Him for His blessing; instead,

    you gained strength to disobey Him through His provision.

  3. تُجاهِرُهُ بِها عَوداً وَبَدءاً

    وَتَستَخفي بِها مِن شَرِّ خَلقِه

    You openly defy Him with those sins, again and anew,

    yet conceal yourself while committing them from the worst of His creatures.
