Perish the hands of the Father of Flame! Perish he! |
The power of Abu Lahab will perish, and he will perish. |
Perdition overtake both hands of Abu Lahab, and he will perish. |

His wealth and what he earns will not avail him. |

Burnt soon will he be in a Fire of Blazing Flame! |
He will be plunged in flaming Fire, |
He shall soon burn in fire that flames, |

His wife shall carry the (crackling) wood - As fuel!- |
And his wife, the wood-carrier, |
And his wife, the bearer of fuel, |

A twisted rope of palm-leaf fibre round her (own) neck! |
Will have upon her neck a halter of palm-fibre. |
Upon her neck a halter of strongly twisted rope. |
