In the Name of ALLAH, the All-compassionate
the All-merciful,
BIS-MIL-LAAHIR-RAH'-MAANIR-RAH'EEM

O Allah, send blessings on Muhammad and on the family of Muhammad,
ALLAHUMMA S'ALE A'LAA MUHAMMAD WA AALE MUHAMMAD

My God, I complain to you of a soul
ILAAHEEE ILAY-KA ASH-KOO NAF-SANA

آ،
(That is)constantly moving towards evil,
BIS-SOOO-I AM-MAARAH

آ،
rushing to commit sins, willing to disobey you
WA ILAAL-KHAT'EE-ATI MUBAADIRAH WA BIMAA'AS'EEKA MOOLAA'H

آ،
and exposing itself to your anger.
WA LISAKHAT'IKA MUTAA'R-RIZ''ATAN

آ،
It takes me on the road leading to disasters,
TAS-LUKA BEE MASAALIKAL-MAHAALIK

آ،
it makes me to be of the ones heading to the path of destruction
WA TAJ-A'LUNEE I'NDAKA AH-WANA HAALIK

It (the soul) has many excuses
KATHYRATAL-I'LAL

آ،
And extended fantasies
T'AWYLATAL-AMAL

آ،
It is anxious to lead me towards evil,
IM-MAS-SAHAASH-SHAR-RU TAJ-ZAU'

آ،
And it is reluctant to take me to all that is good
WA IM-MAS-SAHAAL-KHAY-RU TAM-NAU'

آ،
It is prone to push me towards idleness and diversion,
MAY-YAALATAN ILAAL-LAI'BI WAL-LAAH-WI

آ،
full of neglect and daydreaming,
MAM-LOOO-ATAM-BIL-GHAF-LATI WAS-SAHWI

آ،
it rushes me to commit bad deeds

.
and makes me to delay in asking for repentance.
WA TUSAW-WIFUNEE BIT-TAW-BAH

آ،
My God, I complain to you of an enemy who misguides me
ILAAHEEE ASH-KOOO ILAY-KA'DOO-WAY-YUZ''IL-LUNEE

آ،
and a satan who leads me astray.
WA SHAY-T'AANAY-YUGH-WEENEE

آ،
He has filled my breast with tempting thoughts,
QAD MALAA BIL-WAS-WAASI S'AD-REE

and his suggestions have encompassed my heart.
WA AH'AAT'AT HAWAAJISUHOO BIQAL-BEE

آ،
He urges me to act on my fantasies
YUA'AZ''IDU LEEAL-HAWAA

آ،
And entices me to the love of this world,
WA YUZAY-YINU LEE H'UB-BAD-DUNYAA

.
And distances me from obeying and getting close (to you)
WA YAH'OOLU BAY-NEE WA BAY-NAT'-T'AAA'TI WAZ-ZUL-FAA

My God, to you I complain
ILAAHEEE ILAY-KA ASH-KOO

آ،
of a heart that is hard, sealed and clothed in rust constantly turning towards tempting evil thoughts,
QAL-BANA QAASEEAM-MAA'L-WAS-WAASI MUTAQAL-LIBAW-WA BIR-RAY-NI WAT'-T'AB-I' MUTALAB-BISAA

and of an eye that does not care to weep in fear of you and instead eagerly seeking that which gives it pleasure!
WA A'Y-NANA A'NIL-BUKAAA-I MIN KHAW-FIKA JAAMIDATAW-WA ILAA MAA TASUR-RUHAA T'AAMIH'AH

آ،
My God, there is no force and no strength except in your power,

آ،
And I now realize that there is no rescue for me, from the detested things of this world, except through your protection.

So I ask you by your all reaching wisdom and your all penetrating will

آ،
Dot not expose me to anything except your generosity
ALAA TAJ-A'L-NEE LIGHAY-RI JOODIKA MUTAA'R-RIZ''AA

آ،
and not to turn me into a target for trials!
WA LAA TUS'AY-YIR-NEE LIL-FITANI GHARAZ''AA

And you please be for me a helper against my enemies
WA KUL-LEE A'LAAL-AA'-DAAA-I NAAS'IRAAN

آ،
And provide me protection to cover over my shameful deeds and faults,
WA A'LAAL-MAKHAAZEE WAL-U'YOOBI SAATIRAA

آ،
And be my protector against calamities
WA MINAL-BALAAYAA WAAQEEAA

آ،
And save me from all acts of disobedience!
