هَوِّن عَلَيكَ فَكُلُّ الأَمرِ يَنقَطِعُ

هَوِّن عَلَيكَ فَكُلُّ الأَمرِ يَنقَطِعُ

وَخَلِّ عَنكَ عِنانَ الهَمِّ يَندَفِعُ

وَخَلِّ عَنكَ عِنانَ الهَمِّ يَندَفِعُ

Take it easy on yourself, for every matter comes to an end.

Be easy on yourself, for every matter will come to an end

And cast off worry's reins; it will be driven away.

And leave behind the reins of worry, so it may flow away

فَكُلُّ هَمٍّ لَهُ مِن بَعدِهِ فَرَجٌ

فَكُلُّ هَمٍّ لَهُ مِن بَعدِهِ فَرَجٌ

وَكُلُّ أَمرٍ إِذا ماضاقَ يَتَّسِعُ

وَكُلُّ أَمرٍ إِذا ماضاقَ يَتَّسِعُ

For every worry is followed by relief.

For every worry has relief coming after it

And every matter, when it grows constricted, opens out.

And every tight matter will become open

إِنَّ البَلاءَ وَإِن طالَ الزَمانُ بِهِ

إِنَّ البَلاءَ وَإِن طالَ الزَمانُ بِهِ

فَالمَوتُ يَقطَعُهُ أَو سَوفَ يَنقَطِعُ

فَالمَوتُ يَقطَعُهُ أَو سَوفَ يَنقَطِعُ

Indeed, affliction, even if it lasts a long time—

Indeed, distress - no matter how long it persists

Death will cut it short, or it will eventually end.

Will be severed by death, or it will surely cease
