And by the Night when it is still, -
والليل إذا سجى
And [by] the night when it covers with darkness,
Waallayli itha saja
وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا سَجَىٰ
Thy Guardian - Lord hath not forsaken thee, nor is He displeased.
ما ودعك ربك وما قلى

مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَىٰ
And verily the Hereafter will be better for thee than the present.
وللآخرة خير لك من الأولى
And the Hereafter is better for you than the first [life].

وَلَلْءَاخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ لَّكَ مِنَ ٱلْأُولَىٰ
And soon will thy Guardian - Lord give thee (that wherewith) thou shalt be well - pleased.
ولسوف يعطيك ربك فترضى
And your Lord is going to give you, and you will be satisfied.
Walasawfa yuAAteeka rabbuka fatarda

Did He not find thee an orphan and give thee shelter (and care)?
ألم يجدك يتيما فآوى

وَوَجَدَكَ ضَآلًّا فَهَدَىٰ

Therefore, treat not the orphan with harshness,
فأما اليتيم فلا تقهر
So as for the orphan, do not oppress [him].
Faamma alyateema fala taqhar
فَأَمَّا ٱلْيَتِيمَ فَلَا تَقْهَرْ
Nor repulse the petitioner (unheard);
وأما السائل فلا تنهر

Waamma alssaila fala tanhar
وَأَمَّا ٱلسَّآئِلَ فَلَا تَنْهَرْ
