لَكَ الحَمدُ إِمّا عَلى نَعمَةٍ

وَإِما عَلى نَقمَةٍ تُدفَعُ

To You belongs all praise, whether for a blessing,

Or for an affliction that is turned away.

تشاءُ فَتَفعَلُ ما شئتَهُ

وَتَسمَعُ مِن حَيثُ لا يُسمَعُ

You will, and thus You do whatever You have willed,

And You hear from where no sound is heard.
