إِنَّ ربّي بِرفقهِ
مَنَّ فَضلاً برزقهِ
My Lord in His kindness
Has bestowed His grace and bounty
كَم أُنادي وَحقِّهِ
يا لَطيفاً بِخَلقِهِ
How often do I call upon His right
O Gentle One in His creation
أَنتَ تُعطي وَتَمنَعُ
أَنتَ رَبّي وَمُوجدي
You give and You withhold
You are my Lord and my Maker
أَنتَ في الدَّهرِ مَقصِدي
فَخُذِ الدّهرَ في يَدي
You are, in time, my goal
So take time in Your hand
يا إِلَهي وَسَيِّدي
دُلَّني كَيفَ أَصنَعُ
O my God and my Master
Show me what I should do
