Getting older Quote by Ahmad Fuadi
““Ilahi lastu lilfirdausi ahla, Walaa aqwa ‘ala naaril jahiimi Fahabli taubatan waghfir dzunubi, Fainaka ghafirudz- dzanbil azhimi... Dzunubi mitslu a’daadir- rimali, Fahabli taubatan ya Dzal Jalaali, Wa ‘umri naqishu fi kulli yaumi, Wa dzanbi zaaidun kaifa -htamali Ilahi ‘abdukal ‘aashi ataak, Muqiraan bi dzunubi wa qad da’aaka Fain taghfir fa anta lidzaka ahlun, Wain tadrud faman narju siwaaka O, my Lord, I never deserve to be in the paradise of Yours, But I could never bear the torments i the hell of Yours, Hence, please hear my repentance, forgive my sins, Truly, you are the Great, Merciful forgiver of sins My sins are as uncountable as grains of sand So please, O my Great Lord, bless me with Your mercy Everyday I’m getting older Everyday my sins grow in number How can I be responsible for them? Oh God, Your sinful slave Comes to bow before You To confess all of his sins To pray and to beg only of You If you give me your mercy It’s all besouse of You, who is the only one capable, But if you regret it, of whom should I ask for mercy but of you? -135””
