اَللَّهُمَّ رَّبَّ السَّمَاوَاتِ السَّبْعِ وَمَا أَظْلَلْنَ، وَرَبَّ الْأَرَضِيْنَ السَّبْعِ ومَا أَقْلَلْنَ، ورَبَّ الشَّيَاطِيْنِ ومَا أَضْلَلْنَ، ورَبَّ الرِّيَاحِ وَمَا ذَرَيْنَ، أَسْأَلُكَ خَيْرَ هَذِهِ الْقَرْيَةِ وَخَيْرَ أَهْلِهَا، (وَخَيْرَ مَا فِيهَا) وَنَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّهَا وَشَرِّ أَهْلِهَا وشَرِّ مَا فِيهَا
