قَدindeed صَبَرناwe waited patiently بِالوَعدِon the promise مِنكَfrom you شُهوراًfor months
قَد صَبَرنا بِالوَعدِ مِنكَ شُهوراً
ماnot رَأَيناwe saw بِهُنَّin them لَيلَةَa night قَدرِof decree
ما رَأَينا بِهُنَّ لَيلَةَ قَدرِ
We have waited patiently for months on a promise from you.
We have been patient with your promise for months,
In them we have seen no Night of Decree.
yet we have not seen in them the Night of Power.
كُلُّall تِلكَthose الشُهورِthe months بيضٌwhite وَلَكِنand yet
كُلُّ تِلكَ الشُهورِ بيضٌ وَلَكِن
لَيلَةُthe night القَدرِof Decree خَيرٌbetter مِنthan أَلفِa thousand شَهرِmonth
لَيلَةُ القَدرِ خَيرٌ مِن أَلفِ شَهرِ
All those months are white, and yet
All those months are white, but
the Night of Decree is better than a thousand months.
the Night of Power is better than a thousand months.
