AlqariAAatu
মহাপ্রলয়,
The terrible calamity!
What is the Calamity ?
Ma alqariAAatu
মহাপ্রলয় কী?
What is the terrible calamity!
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Calamity is!
Wama adraka ma alqariAAatu
মহাপ্রলয় সম্বন্ধে তুমি কী জান?
And what will make you comprehend what the terrible calamity is?
A day wherein mankind will be as thickly - scattered moths
Yawma yakoonu alnnasu kaalfarashi almabthoothi
সেই দিন মানুষ হইবে বিক্ষিপ্ত পতংগের মত
The day on which men shall be as scattered moths,
And the mountains will become as carded wool.
Watakoonu aljibalu kaalAAihni almanfooshi
এবং পর্বতসমূহ হইবে ধূনিত রংগিন পশমের মত।
And the mountains shall be as loosened wool.
Then, as for him whose scales are heavy (with good works),
Faamma man thaqulat mawazeenuhu
তখন যাহার পাল্লা ভারি হইবে,
Then as for him whose measure of good deeds is heavy,
He will live a pleasant life.
Fahuwa fee AAeeshatin radiyatin
সে তো লাভ করিবে সন্তোষজনক জীবন।
He shall live a pleasant life.
But as for him whose scales are light,
Waamma man khaffat mawazeenuhu
কিন্তু যাহার পাল্লা হাল্কা হইবে
And as for him whose measure of good deeds is light,
A bereft and Hungry One will be his mother,
Faommuhu hawiyatun
তাহার স্থান হইবে ‘হাবিয়া’।
His abode shall be the abyss.
Ah, what will convey unto thee what she is! -
Wama adraka ma hiyah
তুমি কি জান উহা কী?
And what will make you know what it is?
Raging Fire.
Narun hamiyatun
উহা অতি উত্তপ্ত অগ্নি।
A burning fire.
