I can only break down and cry
I seek refuge in You O Allah!
From eyes that are not restrained
and from a tongue that is not tamed
I seek refuge in You O Allah!
From a heart that is complacent
and from a mood that is not patient
I seek refuge in You O Allah!
From a soul that is not grateful
and from a thought that is not lawful
I seek refuge in You O Allah!
From a limb that is not humble
and from conviction that begins to stumble
I seek refuge in You O Allah!
From hoarding every pence
and from slowness in obedience
I seek refuge in You O Allah!
From love of material life
and from ignorance of Eternal Life
I seek refuge in You O Allah!
From the trials of life and death
and from the punishment of the grave
I seek refuge in You O Allah!
From the trial of Ad-Dajjal
and from the torment of the blaze
Grant me wisdom, O Most High!
And understanding and strength
Grant me fortitude, O Magnificent!
And humility to repent
Grant me light, O Most Merciful!
To penetrate my heart
Grant me Your Love O Creator!
For the Greatest Thou art.
