O Lord ! Rabia al-Adawiyya |
O Lord, If tomorrow on Judgment Day You send me to Hell, I will tell such a secret That Hell will race from me Until it is a thousand years away. O Lord, Whatever share of this world You could give to me, Give it to Your enemies; Whatever share of the next world You want to give to me, Give it to Your friends. You are enough for me. O Lord, If I worship You From fear of Hell, burn me in Hell. O Lord, If I worship You From hope of Paradise, bar me from its gates. But if I worship You for Yourself alone Then grace me forever the splendor of Your Face. |
