'O Allah, You are my Lord; there is no deity worthy of worship except You.

You created me, and I am Your servant,
0:21
and I abide by Your covenant and promise as best I can.
0:25
I seek refuge in You from the evil of what I have done.
0:29
I fully acknowledge Your favor upon me,
0:32
and I acknowledge my sin,
0:35
so forgive me,
0:37
for none forgives sins except You.'
