مِلاكُ الأمرِ تَقْوَى اللهِ فاجعَلْ

تُقاهُ عُدَّةً لِصَلاحِ أمْرِكْ

The command's angel is piety of God, so make

It a means to reform your affairs,

وبادِرْ نَحْوَ طاعَتِهِ بِعَزْمٍ

فَما تَدري مَتى يُمْضَى بعُمْرِكْ

And hasten to obey Him with resolve,

For you know not when your life will end.
