بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ أَلَمْ نَشْرَحْ لَكَ صَدْرَكَ

Have We not caused thy bosom to dilate,

وَوَضَعْنَا عَنْكَ وِزْرَكَ

And eased thee of the burden

الَّذِي أَنْقَضَ ظَهْرَكَ

Which weighed down thy back;

وَرَفَعْنَا لَكَ ذِكْرَكَ

And exalted thy fame?

فَإِنَّ مَعَ الْعُسْرِ يُسْرًا

But lo! with hardship goeth ease,

إِنَّ مَعَ الْعُسْرِ يُسْرًا

Lo! with hardship goeth ease;

فَإِذَا فَرَغْتَ فَانْصَبْ

So when thou art relieved, still toil

وَإِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ فَارْغَبْ

And strive to please thy Lord.
