وَلَقَدۡ رَءَاهُ نَزۡلَةً أُخۡرَىٰ

Walaqad raahu nazlatan okhra

For indeed he saw him at a second descent,

عِندَ سِدۡرَةِ ٱلۡمُنتَهَىٰ

AAinda sidrati almuntaha

Near the Lote-tree beyond which none may pass:

عِندَهَا جَنَّةُ ٱلۡمَأۡوَىٰٓ

AAindaha jannatu almawa

Near it is the Garden of Abode.

إِذۡ يَغۡشَى ٱلسِّدۡرَةَ مَا يَغۡشَىٰ

Ith yaghsha alssidrata ma yaghsha

Behold, the Lote-tree was shrouded (in mystery unspeakable!)

مَا زَاغَ ٱلۡبَصَرُ وَمَا طَغَىٰ

Ma zagha albasaru wama tagha

(His) sight never swerved, nor did it go wrong!
