Alam nashrah laka sadraka
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Have We not caused thy bosom to dilate,
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ألم نشرح لك صدرك
WawadaAAna AAanka wizraka
And eased thee of the burden
ووضعنا عنك وزرك
Allathee anqada thahraka
Which weighed down thy back;
الذي أنقض ظهرك
WarafaAAna laka thikraka
And exalted thy fame ?
ورفعنا لك ذكرك
Fainna maAAa alAAusri yusran
But lo! with hardship goeth ease,
فإن مع العسر يسرا
Inna maAAa alAAusri yusran
Lo! with hardship goeth ease;
إن مع العسر يسرا
Faitha faraghta fainsab
So when thou art relieved, still toil
فإذا فرغت فانصب
Waila rabbika fairghab
And strive to please thy Lord.
وإلى ربك فارغب
