فَأَصحابُ المَيمَنَةِ ما أَصحابُ المَيمَنَةِ

Then the companions of the right - what are the companions of the right?

وَأَصحابُ المَشأَمَةِ ما أَصحابُ المَشأَمَةِ

And the companions of the left - what are the companions of the left?

وَالسّابِقونَ السّابِقونَ

And the forerunners, the forerunners -

أُولـٰئِكَ المُقَرَّبونَ

Those are the ones brought near [to Allah]

في جَنّاتِ النَّعيمِ

In the Gardens of Pleasure,

وَقَليلٌ مِنَ الآخِرينَ

And a few of the later peoples,

عَلىٰ سُرُرٍ مَوضونَةٍ

On thrones woven [with ornament],

مُتَّكِئينَ عَلَيها مُتَقابِلينَ

Reclining on them, facing each other.

يَطوفُ عَلَيهِم وِلدانٌ مُخَلَّدونَ

There will circulate among them young boys made eternal

بِأَكوابٍ وَأَباريقَ وَكَأسٍ مِن مَعينٍ

With vessels, pitchers and a cup [of wine] from a flowing spring -
