(One thing) I had never before seen the persons who came to me on this occasion. My progress (in their pursuit) was naturally halting (due to several additional handicaps), to wit: (a) their mounts moved very swiftly (and I went haltingly on foot); and (b) they knew the route whereas I was bewildered by the circuitous mounds in the tract. O Lord! It is high time, the time of return of all animals etc. to their homes that you kindly come to my aid speedily. You are the alchemy vis-a-vis this abject woman. Kindly reach me (halfway) in the Pub region.
Note: This verse is capable of the following interpretation too:
"I had never seen before the persons (i.e. the angels Munkir and Nakir) who visited me now in the grave. I was rather halting (in my replies to them), but they were much too impatient and authoritative. In addition I was confounded by the mounds-like graves scattered all around me in this desolate place. My Lord Prophet! Kindly come and save me at this crucial time when I am about to return to my permanent abode in the next world. This plebian,by herself, is nothing. You are the alchemy for me. Kindly reach me on the border rock of Pub" i.e. the grave.

Those who come this time I had not seen before,
As I stayed, they hurried away not letting their Camels touch ground,
I was bewildered to see tortuous tracks in wilderness,
Step up, Aaryani, it is high time to come for my help,
This humble woman is nobody, you reach me in Pabb, my Paaruss*
