إلهِي لَوْلا الْواجِبُ مِنْ قَبُولِ أمْرِكَ لَنَزَّهْتُكَ مِنْ ذِكْرِي إيَّاكَ، عَلى أَنَّ ذِكْرِي لَكَ بِقَدْرِي، لا بِقَدْرِكَ،
bullet

وَما عَسى أَنْ يَبْلُغَ مِقْدارِي، حَتّى أُجْعَلَ مَحَلاًّ لِتَقْدِيسِكَ،

bullet

وَمِنْ أَعْظَمِ النِّعَمِ عَلَيْنا جَرَيانُ ذِكْرِكَ عَلى أَلْسِنَتِنَا، وَإذْنُكَ لَنا بِدُعآئِكَ، وَتَنْزِيهِكَ وَتَسْبِيحِكَ.

My Lord!  Were it not incumbent to accept Thy command, I would declare Thee far too exalted for me to remember Thee, for I remember Thee in my measure, not in Thy measure,
bulletAnd my scope can hardly reach the point where I may be a locus for calling Thee holy!
bulletAmong Thy greatest favors to us is to continue to remember Thee across our tongues and to have Thy permission to supplicate Thee, and to declare Thee exalted, and call Thee holy!

bulletإلهِي فَأَلْهِمْنا ذِكْرَكَ فِي الْخَلاءِ وَالْمَلاءِ، وَاللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهارِ، وَالإِعْلانِ وَالإِسْرارِ، وَفِي السَّرَّآءِ وَالضَّرَّآءِ
bulletوَآنِسْنا بِالذِّكْرِ الْخَفِيِّ، وَاسْتَعْمِلْنا بِالْعَمَلِ الزَّكِيِّ،
bulletوَالسَّعْي الْمَرْضِيِّ، وَجازِنا بِالْمِيزانِ الَوَفِيِّ.
bulletGod!  Inspire us with Thy remembrance whether we are in assemblies or alone, by night or day, publicly or secretly, in prosperity or adversity!
bulletAnd let us be joyous by Thy remembrance in our hearts, and do employ us in the goodly pure works
bulletAnd in the effort pleasing to Thee, and reward us with full measure in Thy balance!

إلهِي بِكَ هامَتِ الْقُلُوبُ الْوالِهَةُ، وَعَلى مَعْرِفَتِكَ جُمِعَتِ الْعُقُولُ الْمُتَبايِنَةُ،
bullet

فَلا تَطْمَئِنُّ الْقُلُوبُ إلاَّ بِذِكْراكَ، وَلا تَسْكُنُ النُّفُوسُ إلاّ عِنْدَ رُؤْياكَ،

bullet

أَنْتَ الْمُسَبَّحُ فِي كُلِّ مَكان،

bullet

وَالْمَعْبُودُ فِي كُلِّ زَمان،

bullet

وَالْمَوْجُودُ فِي كُلِّ أَوان،

bullet

وَالْمَدْعُوُّ بِكُلِّ لِسان،

bullet

وَالْمُعَظَّمُ فِي كُلِّ جَنان،

وَأَسْتَغْفِرُكَ مِنْ كُلِّ لَذَّة بِغَيْرِ ذِكْرِكَ، وَمِنْ كُلِّ راحَة بِغَيْرِ أُنْسِكَ، وَمِنْ كُلِّ سُرُور بِغَيْرِ قُرْبِكَ، وَمِنْ كُلِّ شُغْل بِغَيْرِ طاعَتِكَ.

My God, the eager hearts are enraptured by Thee, and by knowing Thee the disparate intellects are congealed together,

bullet

The hearts find no serenity except in remembering Thee, and the souls find no rest except in seeing Thee.

bullet

You are the glorified in every place,

bullet

the worshipped at every time,

bullet

the found at every moment,

bullet

the called by every tongue,

bullet

the magnified in every heart!

I pray forgiveness from Thee for every pleasure without remembering Thee, and every ease without the intimacy with Thee, And every happiness without  nearness to Thee, and every occupation without obeying Thee!

إلهِي أَنْتَ قُلْتَ وَقَوْلُكَ الْحَقُّ: (يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اذْكُرُوا اللهَ ذِكْراً كَثِيراً وَسَبِّحُوهُ بُكْرَةً وَأَصِيلاً) وَقُلْتَ وَقَوْلُكَ الْحَقُّ: (فَاذْكُرُونِي أَذْكُرْكُمْ)
bullet

فَأَمَرْتَنا بِذِكْرِكَ، وَوَعَدْتَنا عَلَيْهِ أَنْ تَذْكُرَنا تَشْرِيفاً لَنا وَتَفْخِيمَاً وَإعْظامَاً،

bullet

وَها نَحْنُ ذاكِرُوكَ كَما أَمَرْتَنا، فَأَنْجِزْ لَنا مَا وَعَدْتَنا

bullet

يا ذاكِرَ الذَّاكِرِينَ، وَيا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ.

My Lord!  You have said (and Thy word is true) - "O you who have faith, remember God with much remembrance and glorify Him at dawn and in the evening!"  You have also said - (and Thy word is true) "Remember Me, and I will remember you!"
bullet

You have commanded us to remember Thee, and promised us that You will remember us thereby, in order to ennoble, respect, and honor us.

bullet

Here we are, remembering Thee as You have commanded! So accomplish what You have promised,

bullet

O the One Who Remembers those who remember Him! O Most Merciful of the merciful!
