مَن لِعَبدٍ أَذَلَّهُ مَولاهُ

مَن لِعَبدٍ أَذَلَّهُ مَولاهُ

ما لَهُ شافِعٌ إِلَيهِ سِواهُ

ما لَهُ شافِعٌ إِلَيهِ سِواهُ

Who will help a servant whom his Lord has humbled?

What can the lowly servant do when rejected by his Master?

He has no intercessor with Him except Him.

There is none to intercede for him except the Master himself.

يَشتَكي ما بِهِ إِلَيهِ وَيَخشا

يَشتَكي ما بِهِ إِلَيهِ وَيَخشا

هُ وَيَرجوهُ مِثلَما يَخشاهُ

هُ وَيَرجوهُ مِثلَما يَخشاهُ

He complains to Him of what ails him, and fears

He complains to Him of his state and fears Him,

Him, and hopes in Him just as he fears Him.

And places his hopes in Him just as he fears Him.
