I do swear by this land
This land where you are free to dwell
And by the parents and their children
We have created man into a life of pain and distress and toil and trial
Yet he thinks nothing can overpower him
He boasts: I have wasted great wealth
Does he think no one sees him?
Did we not give him two eyes
And a tongue? And two lips?
And guided him to the parting of two paths.
But he has not taken the uphill and challenging path
And how will you understand the value of the uphill and challenging path?
It is the freeing of a slave
Or giving food in a time of hunger
To a family member
Or to any person in need
Then, being among those believers who heed the warning -- and advise others toward patience and toward compassion
These are the people of the right hand
But for those who disbelieve… they will be the people of the left hand
With a seal of fire closing in on them.
