أيّها الظَّالمُ مهلاً

أنتَ بالحاكمِ غِرُّ

O oppressor, stop!

You are resentful of the ruler

كلُّ ما استعذَبْتَ منْ جَوْ

ركَ تعذيبٌ وجَمْرُ

All the sweetness you have tasted

Is torture and embers

ليس يلقى دعوةَ المظ

لومِ دونَ اللهِ سِتْرُ

No plea of the oppressed reaches

Anyone but Allah as cover

فَخَفِ الله فما يَخْ

فى عَلَيْهِ مِنهُ سرُّ

So fear Allah, nothing of Him

Remains hidden from Him as secret

يجمعُ الظّالمَ والمَظْ

لومَ بعد الموتِ حَشْرُ

He will gather the oppressor and oppressed

After death for reckoning

حيثُ لا يَمْنَعُ سُلْ

طانٌ ولا يُسْمَعُ عُذْرُ

Where no authority prevents

And no excuse is heard

أَوَ ما يَنهاكَ عن ظُل

مِك موتٌ ثمَّ قَبْرُ

Does not the death that comes to you

And then the grave caution you

بعضُ ما فيه من الأهْ

وَالِ فيهِ لكَ زَجْرُ

Some of the horrors within it

Are for you a deterrent
