بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ وَٱلضُّحَىٰ ﴿1﴾

Wad duhaa

By the morning hours

وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا سَجَىٰ ﴿2﴾

Wal laili iza sajaa

And by the night when it is stillest,

مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَىٰ ﴿3﴾

Ma wad da'aka rabbuka wa ma qalaa

Thy Lord hath not forsaken thee nor doth He hate thee,

وَلَلْءَاخِرَةُ خَيْرٌۭ لَّكَ مِنَ ٱلْأُولَىٰ ﴿4﴾

Walal-aakhiratu khairul laka minal-oola

And verily the latter portion will be better for thee than the former,

وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَىٰٓ ﴿5﴾

Wa la sawfa y'uteeka rabbuka fatarda

And verily thy Lord will give unto thee so that thou wilt be content.

أَلَمْ يَجِدْكَ يَتِيمًۭا فَـَٔاوَىٰ ﴿6﴾

Alam ya jidka yateeman fa aawaa

Did He not find thee an orphan and protect (thee)?

وَوَجَدَكَ ضَآلًّۭا فَهَدَىٰ ﴿7﴾

Wa wa jadaka daal lan fahada

Did He not find thee wandering and direct (thee)?

وَوَجَدَكَ عَآئِلًۭا فَأَغْنَىٰ ﴿8﴾

Wa wa jadaka 'aa-ilan fa aghnaa

Did He not find thee destitute and enrich (thee)?

فَأَمَّا ٱلْيَتِيمَ فَلَا تَقْهَرْ ﴿9﴾

Fa am mal yateema fala taqhar

Therefor the orphan oppress not,

وَأَمَّا ٱلسَّآئِلَ فَلَا تَنْهَرْ ﴿10﴾

Wa am mas saa-ila fala tanhar

Therefor the beggar drive not away,

وَأَمَّا بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ فَحَدِّثْ ﴿11﴾

Wa amma bi ni'mati rabbika fahad dith

Therefor of the bounty of thy Lord be thy discourse.
