When the sun is woundup
when the stars are thrown down
and the mountains have been taken
when the pregnant camels are neglected
when the savage beasts are gathere
when the seas are set boiling
when the souls are coupled (to their body)
when the buried female infant is asked
for what crime she was slain
when the scrolls are unrolled
when heaven is stripped
when Hell is set ablaze
when Paradise is brought near
then, each soul shall know what it has produced
Rather, I swear by the returnin
orbiting, disappearing
by the night when it approache
and the morning when it extends
it is indeed the word of an Honorable Messenger
of power, given a rank by the Owner of the Throne
obeyed, and honest
Your Companion is not mad
in truth he saw him (Gabriel) on the clear horizon
he is not grudging of the Unseen
Nor is this the word of a stoned satan
Where then are you going
This is nothing but a Reminder to the worlds
for whosoever of you would go straight
but you shall not, unless Allah wills, the Lord of all the Worlds
