1. يا رَبِّ ذَنبي عَظيمُ

    وَأَنتَ عَنّي حَليمُ

    O my Lord, my sin is great,

    and You are forbearing toward me.

  2. بَل عَزَّني مِنكَ وَعدٌ

    لَهُ الأَنامُ تَرومُ

    Rather, a promise from You has strengthened me,

    one for which all humankind yearns:

  3. إِذ قُلتَ في الذِكرِ لِلمُص

    طَفى وَأَنتَ كَريمُ

    when You said in the Remembrance to al-Mus-

    tafa—and You are generous—

  4. نَبِّئ عِبادي أَنّي

    أَنا الغَفورُ الرَحيمُ

    “Tell My servants that I

    am indeed the All-Forgiving, the Merciful.”
