When the earth lies silent beneath the cloak of night,
When hearts whisper prayers the tongue cannot recite,
When the stars bow low in silent beauty,
There descends the Eternal Lord’s mercy.
“Indeed, We sent it down on the Night of Decree.”
The night that lights up human destiny.
A message descended from the heavens afar,
Guiding lost hearts like a radiant star.
No scale of the world can measure its treasure
For Laylat-ul-Qadr is better than a thousand months of prayers.
One tear in repentance, one whisper sincere,
May brighten the destiny forever.
The angels descend in silent array,
With Jibrīl leading their luminous way.
They descend with decrees from the Lord Most High,
For every soul living beneath His vast sky.
They pass through the earth with greetings of peace,
Where hearts bow in sajdah and tears release—
“Peace it is until the rise of dawn,”
And every pain seems to be gone.
From dusk till the break of the morning light,
Mercy embraces the faithful that night.
O seeker of mercy, awaken your soul—
Let remembrance and repentance be your goal.
Perhaps in this moment, unseen, unheard,
Your name is written among those preferred.
Raise trembling hands, let repentance flow,
For the One who forgives already knows.
So stand in the darkness, yet bathed in His light,
A servant humbled in Qadr’s sacred night.
For destinies change where sincere hearts beseech
And a thousand hidden blessings are released.
When dawn finally breaks and the stars depart,
Leave that night written deep in your heart.
For whoever finds Qadr with faith and plea—
Finds the keys to eternity.
Perhaps this very night your fate is rewritten.
Perhaps this very night your sins are forgiven.
Perhaps this very night your soul is cleansed within.
