بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

In the Name of Allah, the All-beneficent, the All-merciful.

أَلَمْ نَشْرَحْ لَكَ صَدْرَكَ

Did We not open your breast for you

وَوَضَعْنَا عَنْكَ وِزْرَكَ

and relieve you of your burden

الَّذِي أَنْقَضَ ظَهْرَكَ

which [almost] broke your back?

وَرَفَعْنَا لَكَ ذِكْرَكَ

Did We not exalt your name?

فَإِنَّ مَعَ الْعُسْرِ يُسْرًا

Indeed ease accompanies hardship.

إِنَّ مَعَ الْعُسْرِ يُسْرًا

Indeed ease accompanies hardship.

فَإِذَا فَرَغْتَ فَانْصَبْ

So when you are done, appoint,

وَإِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ فَارْغَبْ

and supplicate your Lord.
