وَأَنْتَ حِلٌّ بِهَٰذَا الْبَلَدِ ٢
And thou art a freeman of this City;-
وَأَنْتَ حِلٌّ بِهَٰذَا الْبَلَدِ ٢
And thou art a freeman of this City;-
وَوَالِدٍ وَمَا وَلَدَ ٣
And (the mystic ties of) parent and child;-
لَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا الْإِنْسَانَ فِي كَبَدٍ ٤
Verily We have created man into toil and struggle.
أَيَحْسَبُ أَنْ لَنْ يَقْدِرَ عَلَيْهِ أَحَدٌ ٥
Thinketh he, that none hath power over him?
يَقُولُ أَهْلَكْتُ مَالًا لُبَدًا ٦
He may say (boastfully); Wealth have I squandered in abundance!
