بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ أَلَمْ نَشْرَحْ لَكَ صَدْرَكَ
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Have We not caused thy bosom to dilate,
Have We not expanded thee thy breast? -

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ أَلَمْ نَشْرَحْ لَكَ صَدْرَكَ
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Have We not caused thy bosom to dilate,
Have We not expanded thee thy breast? -
Alam nashrah laka sadraka
وَوَضَعْنَا عَنكَ وِزْرَكَ
And eased thee of the burden
And removed from thee thy burden
WawadaAAna AAanka wizraka
الَّذِي أَنقَضَ ظَهْرَكَ
Which weighed down thy back;
The which did gall thy back? -
Allathee anqada thahraka
وَرَفَعْنَا لَكَ ذِكْرَكَ
And exalted thy fame ?
And raised high the esteem (in which) thou (art held)?
WarafaAAna laka thikraka
فَإِنَّ مَعَ الْعُسْرِ يُسْرًا
But lo! with hardship goeth ease,
So, verily, with every difficulty, there is relief:
Fainna maAAa alAAusri yusran
إِنَّ مَعَ الْعُسْرِ يُسْرًا
Lo! with hardship goeth ease;
Verily, with every difficulty there is relief.
Inna maAAa alAAusri yusran
فَإِذَا فَرَغْتَ فَانصَبْ
So when thou art relieved, still toil
Therefore, when thou art free (from thine immediate task), still labour hard,
Faitha faraghta fainsab
وَإِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ فَارْغَب
And strive to please thy Lord.
And to thy Lord turn (all) thy attention.
