وَالْعَادِيَاتِ ضَبْحًا

OH, the chargers that run panting, (1)

فَالْمُورِيَاتِ قَدْحًا

sparks of fire striking, (2)

فَأَثَرْنَ بِهِ نَقْعًا

thereby raising clouds of dust, (4)

فَوَسَطْنَ بِهِ جَمْعًا

thereby storming [blindly] into any host! (5)

إِنَّ الْإِنْسَانَ لِرَبِّهِ لَكَنُودٌ

VERILY, towards his Sustainer man is most ungrateful (6)

وَإِنَّهُ عَلَىٰ ذَٰلِكَ لَشَهِيدٌ

and to this, behold, he [himself] bears witness indeed: (7)

وَإِنَّهُ لِحُبِّ الْخَيْرِ لَشَدِيدٌ

for, verily, to the love of wealth is he most ardently devoted. (8)

أَفَلَا يَعْلَمُ إِذَا بُعْثِرَ مَا فِي الْقُبُورِ

But does he not know that [on the Last Day,] when all that is in the graves is raised and brought out, (9)

وَحُصِّلَ مَا فِي الصُّدُورِ

and all that is [hidden] in men's hearts is bared (10)

إِنَّ رَبَّهُمْ بِهِمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ لَخَبِيرٌ

that on that Day their Sustainer [will show that He] has always been fully aware of them? (11)
