وَلَلۡأٓخِرَةُ خَيۡرٞ لَّكَ مِنَ ٱلۡأُولَىٰ

Walalakhiratu khayrun laka mina aloola

And verily the Hereafter will be better for thee than the present.

وَلَسَوۡفَ يُعۡطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرۡضَىٰٓ

Walasawfa yuAAteeka rabbuka fatarda

And soon will thy Guardian-Lord give thee (that wherewith) thou shalt be well-pleased.

أَلَمۡ يَجِدۡكَ يَتِيمٗا فَـَٔاوَىٰ

Alam yajidka yateeman faawa

Did He not find thee an orphan and give thee shelter (and care)?

وَوَجَدَكَ ضَآلّٗا فَهَدَىٰ

Wawajadaka dallan fahada

And He found thee wandering, and He gave thee guidance.

وَوَجَدَكَ عَآئِلٗا فَأَغۡنَىٰ

Wawajadaka AAailan faaghna

And He found thee in need, and made thee independent.

فَأَمَّا ٱلۡيَتِيمَ فَلَا تَقۡهَرۡ

Faamma alyateema fala taqhar

Therefore, treat not the orphan with harshness,

وَأَمَّا ٱلسَّآئِلَ فَلَا تَنۡهَرۡ

Waamma alssaila fala tanhar

Nor repulse the petitioner (unheard);

وَأَمَّا بِنِعۡمَةِ رَبِّكَ فَحَدِّثۡ

Waamma biniAAmati rabbika fahaddith

But the bounty of the Lord - rehearse and proclaim!
