Al-Majîd
Al-Majîd! Glorious Lord upon the Throne,
With this great name we praise Thee, Sovereign One!
With this great name we praise Thee, Sovereign One!
By the Heavens, walled with silver signs and towers!
By the Promised Day!
By the Witness and the Witnessed; and the Way
Of righteousness!—this glorious Book of ours
Lieth treasured up in Heaven,
As 'twas given
On the mighty “Night of Powers;”
And its easy bond is this,
The which to keep is bliss:
By the Promised Day!
By the Witness and the Witnessed; and the Way
Of righteousness!—this glorious Book of ours
Lieth treasured up in Heaven,
As 'twas given
On the mighty “Night of Powers;”
And its easy bond is this,
The which to keep is bliss:

“None save Glorious Allah serve;
Never from His precepts swerve;
Honour teacher, father, mother;
Unto him who is thy brother,
Unto kindred, friends also,
Orphans, suppliants, sad ones, show
Gentleness and help; to each
Speak with kind and courteous speech.
Give in alms that thou may'st spare,
And be constant in thy prayer.”

And be constant in thy prayer.”
Allah al-Majîd! Thy favour grant,
That we may keep this covenant.
That we may keep this covenant.
