1. أيّها الظَّالمُ مهلاً

    أنتَ بالحاكمِ غِرُّ

    O oppressor, desist!

    You are ignorant of the Judge.

  2. كلُّ ما استعذَبْتَ منْ جَوْ

    ركَ تعذيبٌ وجَمْرُ

    All that you have found sweet in your

    oppression is torment and glowing coals.

  3. ليس يلقى دعوةَ المظ

    لومِ دونَ اللهِ سِتْرُ

    No veil bars the prayer of the

    oppressed from reaching God.

  4. فَخَفِ الله فما يَخْ

    فى عَلَيْهِ مِنهُ سرُّ

    So fear God, for no secret of his

    is hidden from Him.

  5. يجمعُ الظّالمَ والمَظْ

    لومَ بعد الموتِ حَشْرُ

    The gathering for judgment brings the oppressor and the

    oppressed together after death.

  6. حيثُ لا يَمْنَعُ سُلْ

    طانٌ ولا يُسْمَعُ عُذْرُ

    Where no protection comes from

    authority, and no excuse is heard.

  7. أَوَ ما يَنهاكَ عن ظُل

    مِك موتٌ ثمَّ قَبْرُ

    Are you not deterred from your

    oppression by death, and then a grave?

  8. بعضُ ما فيه من الأهْ

    وَالِ فيهِ لكَ زَجْرُ

    Some of its

    terrors hold a warning for you.
