وَفاكِهَةً وَأَبًّا

And fruit and grass -

مَتاعًا لَكُم وَلِأَنعامِكُم

[As] enjoyment for you and your grazing livestock.

فَإِذا جاءَتِ الصّاخَّةُ

But when there comes the Deafening Blast

يَومَ يَفِرُّ المَرءُ مِن أَخيهِ

On the Day a man will flee from his brother

وَأُمِّهِ وَأَبيهِ

And his mother and his father

لِكُلِّ امرِئٍ مِنهُم يَومَئِذٍ شَأنٌ يُغنيهِ

For every man, that Day, will be a matter adequate for him.

وُجوهٌ يَومَئِذٍ مُسفِرَةٌ

[Some] faces, that Day, will be bright -

ضاحِكَةٌ مُستَبشِرَةٌ

Laughing, rejoicing at good news.

وَوُجوهٌ يَومَئِذٍ عَلَيها غَبَرَةٌ

And [other] faces, that Day, will have upon them dust.

تَرهَقُها قَتَرَةٌ

Blackness will cover them.
