1. * |
BY the noon-day BRIGHTNESS,
|
|
2. * |
And by the night when it darkeneth!
|
|
3. * |
Thy Lord hath not forsaken thee, neither hath he been displeased.
|
|
4. * |
And surely the Future shall be better for thee than the Past,
|
|
5. * |
And in the end shall thy Lord be bounteous to thee and thou be satisfied.
|
|
6. * |
Did he not find thee an orphan and gave thee a home?
|
|
7. * |
And found thee erring and guided thee,
|
|
8. * |
And found thee needy and enriched thee.
|
|
9. * |
As to the orphan therefore wrong him not;
|
|
10. * |
And as to him that asketh of thee, chide him not away;
|
|
11. * |
And as for the favours of thy Lord tell them abroad.
