ألا يا أيها الغادي
على نُكري بتحقيق
O you who walk
Complaining of fate's cruelty -
وشاكي خالق الخلق
إلى أضعف مخلوق
Crying out to the Creator of all
As if the weakest of creatures could aid you,
إلى من ليس يغنيك
لدى الشدة والضيق
As if one powerless could be your refuge
In times of woe and misery -
كما لم تحضر الفطرة
في الكون بتدقيق
Did you not enter the world through Divine decree,
With sustenance already allotted?
فثق بالله في الرزق
فما أنت بمسبوق
So trust in God, for your provision is assured,
None can deprive you of what is yours.
كما فوضت في الجملة
فوّض في التفاريق
Submit to the whole as you did at first,
And leave the details to the universe.
فمن لطف في الخفق
وغدّاك بتوفيق
For He who gave you life and grace
Will not forsake you in your place,
ترى ينساك نطيقا
بإيمان وتصديق
Have faith, believe, and you will always find
God remembers you, for you are in His mind.
