وبعدين كبرت ورجلك شالتك فعملت إيه؟ فعصيته، فعمل إيه؟ ففضل يحسن إليك، فأنت عملت إيه؟ فعصيته تاني، فعمل إيه؟ ففضل يحسن إليك. فين ده بيحسن إليّ؟ فين بيحسن إليك؟ بص يا ابني في جسمك يا ابني. بص في أعضائك وسلامة أعضائك. بص في النفس اللي بتاخده بسهولة ده، بص لستره الجميل، إنك قاعد هنا دلوقتي ومحدش يعرف من اللي حواليك بلاويك. لا هو محسن إليك، وبعد كده تقوم تروح تعصي تاني. أنا حاسس بس إن ربنا هين عليك. ليه نظر ربنا هين عليك؟ ليه مش عايز تتوب؟ ليه شايف إن ده كلام وعظ ما يأكلش عيش؟ يا عم أنت مش ربنا سبحانه وتعالى بيقول: والآخرة خير وأبقى. أنت ليه مش مصدق؟ ليه متخيل إن الدنيا هي اللي خير وأبقى؟ يا عم أنت هتموت، وأنا هموت. أنت متخيل يا جماعة إن إحنا هنموت؟ أنت عارف يعني إيه هنموت؟ أنت بتصحى الصبح تلاقيني مش موجود، وأنا أصحى الصبح ما ألاقكش موجود. هيعملوا إيه؟ هيحفروا لنا حفرة وينزلونا فيها ويقفلوا علينا ويكملوا حياتهم. وسنة واتنين وتلاتة واللي نزلونا هينزلوا معانا. يا عبده كم يراك الله عاصيا حريصا على الدنيا وللموت ناسيا أنسيت لقاء الله واللحد والثرى ويوما عبوسا تشيب فيه النواصي لو أن المرء لم يلبس ثيابا من التقى تجرد عريانا ولو كان كاسيا ولو أن ذي الدنيا تدوم لأهلها لكان رسول الله حيا وباقيا ولكنها تفنى ويفنى نعيمها وتبقى ذنوبك والمعاصي كما هي.

English translation

And then you grew up and your legs carried you, so what did you do? You disobeyed Him. So what did He do? He continued to be good to you. So what did you do? You disobeyed Him again. So what did He do? He continued to be good to you. Where is He being good to me? Where is He being good to you? Look at your body, my son. Look at your organs and the soundness of your organs. Look at the breath you take so easily. Look at His beautiful covering, that you are sitting here now and no one around you knows your troubles. No, He is good to you. And then you go and disobey again. I feel that God is easy for you. Why is God's view easy for you? Why don't you want to repent? Why do you see this as preaching that doesn't make a living? My friend, doesn't God Almighty say: "And the Hereafter is better and more lasting"? Why don't you believe it? Why do you imagine that the world is better and more lasting? My friend, you will die, and I will die. Do you imagine, people, that we will die? Do you know what it means that we will die? You wake up in the morning and find me gone, and I wake up in the morning and don't find you there. What will they do? They will dig us a hole, put us in it, close it on us, and continue their lives. And a year, two, and three, and those who put us down will come down with us. Oh servant, how many times does God see you disobeying, greedy for the world and forgetting death? Have you forgotten the meeting with God, the grave, and the soil, and a grim day in which the forelocks turn gray? If a person did not wear clothes of piety, he would be stripped naked even if he were clothed. And if this world lasted for its people, the Messenger of God would be alive and remaining. But it perishes, and its bliss perishes, and your sins and disobedience remain as they are.
