93: The Morning Hours, Morning Bright!
|
| 1 |
By the Glorious Morning Light,
|
| 2 |
And by the Night when it is still,-
|
| 3 |
Thy Guardian-Lord hath not forsaken thee, nor is He displeased.
|
| 4 |
And verily the Hereafter will be better for thee than the present.
|
| 5 |
And soon will thy Guardian-Lord give thee (that wherewith) thou shalt
be well-pleased.
|
| 6 |
Did He not find thee an orphan and give thee shelter (and care)?
|
| 7 |
And He found thee wandering, and He gave thee guidance.
|
| 8 |
And He found thee in need, and made thee independent.
|
| 9 |
Therefore, treat not the orphan with harshness,
|
| 10 |
Nor repulse the petitioner (unheard);
|
| 11 |
But the bounty of the Lord - rehearse and proclaim!
