أَلَم نَجعَلِ الأَرضَ مِهادًا

Have We not made the earth a resting place?

وَالجِبالَ أَوتادًا

And the mountains as stakes?

وَخَلَقناكُم أَزواجًا

And We created you in pairs

وَجَعَلنا نَومَكُم سُباتًا

And made your sleep [a means for] rest

وَجَعَلنَا اللَّيلَ لِباسًا

And made the night as clothing

وَبَنَينا فَوقَكُم سَبعًا شِدادًا

And constructed above you seven strong [heavens]

وَجَعَلنا سِراجًا وَهّاجًا

And made [therein] a burning lamp

وَأَنزَلنا مِنَ المُعصِراتِ ماءً ثَجّاجًا

And sent down, from the rain clouds, pouring water

لِنُخرِجَ بِهِ حَبًّا وَنَباتًا

That We may bring forth thereby grain and vegetation

وَجَنّاتٍ أَلفافًا

And gardens of entwined growth.
