أَلا مَن مُبلِغُ الرَحمَن عَنّي

أَلا مَن مُبلِغُ الرَحمَن عَنّي

بِأَنّي تارِكٌ شَهرَ الصِيامِ

بِأَنّي تارِكٌ شَهرَ الصِيامِ

Hear! Who will tell the Most Merciful on my behalf

Oh messenger of The Merciful, tell Him for me

That I am abandoning the month of fasting?

That I have abandoned the month of fasting

فَقُل لِلَّهِ يَمنَعُني شَرابي

فَقُل لِلَّهِ يَمنَعُني شَرابي

وَقُل لِلَّهِ يَمنَعُني طَعامي

وَقُل لِلَّهِ يَمنَعُني طَعامي

Then tell God to deny me my drink,

Say to God my drink prevents me

And tell God to deny me my food.

And say to God my food prevents me
