Al-'Adiyat

wal-ʿādiyāti ḍabḥan

By the racers, panting,

fal-mūriyāti qadḥan

And the producers of sparks [when] striking

fal-mughīrāti ṣub'ḥan

And the chargers at dawn,

fa-atharna bihi naqʿan

Stirring up thereby [clouds of] dust,

fawasaṭna bihi jamʿan

Arriving thereby in the center collectively,

inna l-insāna lirabbihi lakanūdun

Indeed mankind, to his Lord, is ungrateful.

wa-innahu ʿalā dhālika lashahīdun

And indeed, he is to that a witness.

wa-innahu liḥubbi l-khayri lashadīdun

And indeed he is, in love of wealth, intense.

afalā yaʿlamu idhā buʿ'thira mā fī l-qubūri

But does he not know that when the contents of the graves are scattered

waḥuṣṣila mā fī l-ṣudūri

And that within the breasts is obtained,

inna rabbahum bihim yawma-idhin lakhabīrun

Indeed, their Lord with them, that Day, is [fully] Aware.
