ذَرْهُمْ

يَأْكُلُوا

وَيَتَمَتَّعُوا

وَيُلْهِهِمُ

الْأَمَلُ

فَسَوْفَ

يَعْلَمُونَ

Leave them alone, to enjoy (the good things of this life) and to please themselves: let (false) hope amuse them: soon will knowledge (undeceive them).

Abdullah Yusufali

Leave them to eat and enjoy and to be diverted by longings. Soon they will know.
