| Welcome, O Guest, after much absence Even in your absence, you are still in mind We long for fasting, some amongst the best of days Little to no sleep, staying up at night with loved ones Again, we return, we gather upon love Even those who are not with us, they join us in Ramadan Welcome Ramadan.. Welcome Ramadan Welcome, O Ramadan; we long for Ramadan O Month of illumination, with an abundance of joy You are the best of months, welcome Ramadan A pleasant meal provides for a hundred It warmheartedly quenches the forgotten hearts It is during the gathering in Ramadan, welcome Ramadan How beautiful is the table spread, with no need for a lot of food Some water with a date both give strength to the fellowship How beautiful the table spread in Ramadan, welcome Ramadan Welcome, O Ramadan; we long for Ramadan O Month of illumination, with an abundance of joy You are the best of months, welcome Ramadan Ask about your neighbour, do not remain at home Some households nearby are overwhelmed with sadness Knock on their doors, talk to the residents Alleviate their hardships, ease their pain Donate and do not say to me; I live in poverty The good deed raises your rank It is during the gathering in Ramadan, welcome Ramadan Welcome, O Ramadan; we long for Ramadan O Month of illumination, with an abundance of joy You are the best of months, welcome Ramadan Beautify your times by performing the remembering God Almighty Enlighten your nights by reciting the verses of the Quran Learn and teach others that God, His Throne doth extend over the heavens and the earth Perform Al-Tarawih prayers, along with your friends Increase the good deeds, and you shall forget your sorrows You do not know through which act of kindness By whose reward in the Hereafter, you might attain forgiveness Welcome, O Ramadan; we long for Ramadan O Month of illumination, with an abundance of joy You are the best of months, welcome Ramadan
