وَحَمَلناهُ عَلىٰ ذاتِ أَلواحٍ وَدُسُرٍ

تَجري بِأَعيُنِنا جَزاءً لِمَن كانَ كُفِرَ

وَلَقَد تَرَكناها آيَةً فَهَل مِن مُدَّكِرٍ
And We left it as a sign—is there anyone who will take notice?
فَكَيفَ كانَ عَذابي وَنُذُرِ

تَنزِعُ النّاسَ كَأَنَّهُم أَعجازُ نَخلٍ مُنقَعِرٍ
Plucking people up, as if they were trunks of palm trees uprooted.
فَكَيفَ كانَ عَذابي وَنُذُرِ
