يا مَن تَعَرَّضَ بِالمَعاصي خَلِّها

وَاِحتَل لِما يُنجيكَ ساعَةَ تُعرَضُ

O you who have indulged in sin, leave it now

And prepare for what will save you when you are judged

وَاِستَقرِضِ التَقوى لِكَي تَقوى بِها

سيما وَعُمرُكَ قَد بَدا يَتَقَرَّضُ

And borrow piety so that you may be strengthened by it

Especially since your life has begun to dwindle

فَلَئِن عَدَلتَ إِلى طَريقِ نَصيحَتي

فَلِأَنتَ فيهِ بِحَقِّ نَفسِكَ تَنهَضُ

So if you turn to the path of my advice

Then you will truly rise for your own sake
