By the Glorious Morning Light, 1

And by the Night when it is still,- 2

Thy Guardian-Lord hath not forsaken thee, nor is He displeased. 3

And verily the Hereafter will be better for thee than the present. 4

And soon will thy Guardian-Lord give thee (that wherewith) thou shalt be well-pleased. 5

Did He not find thee an orphan and give thee shelter (and care)? 6

And He found thee wandering, and He gave thee guidance. 7

And He found thee in need, and made thee independent. 8

Therefore, treat not the orphan with harshness, 9

Nor repulse him who asks; 10

But the bounty of the Lord - rehearse and proclaim! 11
