وَما أَدراكَ مَا الطّارِقُ
And what will explain to you what the pulsar is?
النَّجمُ الثّاقِبُ
It’s the piercing star.
إِن كُلُّ نَفسٍ لَمّا عَلَيها حافِظٌ
There is no soul without a Protector over it.
فَليَنظُرِ الإِنسانُ مِمَّ خُلِقَ
Let man consider what he was created from.
خُلِقَ مِن ماءٍ دافِقٍ
He was created from a gushing fluid.
يَخرُجُ مِن بَينِ الصُّلبِ وَالتَّرائِبِ
Emerging from between the backbone and the ribs.
