مَا هَذِهِ الدُّنْيَا بِمَأْمُونَةٍ

مَا هَذِهِ الدُّنْيَا بِمَأْمُونَةٍ

لا تَفْتَرِرْ بِالسَّاعَةِ السَّانِحَهُ

لا تَفْتَرِرْ بِالسَّاعَةِ السَّانِحَهُ

This world is not to be trusted.

This world is not everlasting

Do not smile at the opportune hour.

Do not be fooled by the present hour

يَجُزْكَ فِي العُقْبَى بِإِحْسَانِهِ

يَجُزْكَ فِي العُقْبَى بِإِحْسَانِهِ

مَنْ يَلْحَقُ اللَّيْلَةَ بِالبَارِحَهْ

مَنْ يَلْحَقُ اللَّيْلَةَ بِالبَارِحَهْ

May he reward you in the hereafter with his kindness—

He will reward you in the hereafter with His grace

He who joins tonight to last night.

Who joins tonight with yesterday

يَا أَيُّهَا الزَّائِرُ أَحْبَابَهُ

يَا أَيُّهَا الزَّائِرُ أَحْبَابَهُ

قِفْ بِضَرِيحِي وَاقْرَأِ الفَاتِحَهْ

قِفْ بِضَرِيحِي وَاقْرَأِ الفَاتِحَهْ

O you who visit your loved ones,

O you who visit loved ones

Stand at my tomb and recite al-Fatiha.

Stand at my grave and recite Al-Fatihah
