اِذاif ماemphatic particle خَلَوتyou are alone الدَهرthroughout life يَوماًone day فَلاthen do not تَقُلsay
اِذا ما خَلَوت الدَهر يَوماً فَلا تَقُل
خَلَوتI am alone وَلكِنand yet قُلsay عَليover me رَقيبa watcher
خَلَوت وَلكِن قُل عَلي رَقيب
If ever you find yourself alone one day, do not say,
If ever life's hardships make you taste loneliness,
“I am alone,” but say, “A watcher is over me.”
Say not 'I'm lonely,' but say, 'The Lord's with me.'
فَلاso do not تَحسَبَنَّever think اللَهَGod يَغفَلis heedless ساعَةfor a moment
فَلا تَحسَبَنَّ اللَهَ يَغفَل ساعَة
وَلاand do not أَنthat ماwhat يَخفىis hidden عَلَيهِfrom Him يَغيبُescapes notice
وَلا أَن ما يَخفى عَلَيهِ يَغيبُ
So never think that God is heedless for a moment,
Do not assume God is ever unwatchful,
Nor that anything hidden escapes His notice.
Nor that He's unaware of all you conceal.
