O Allah, Allow let us live to witness the [holy] month of Ramadan
O Allah, let our lives be extended so that we live to see the holy month of Ramadan. "Holy" is often added before Ramadan, but it is not actually part of the source text.

: good wording, except I would use 'observe' rather than 'witness' because it's more commonly used/accepted in this context

That's a good point, but the meaning is a bit different - Observe would refer to actually performing the fast, whereas witness would mean to live to see the month even if the person wasn't able to fast for some reason - thanks for the comment though :)

May we, with Your Grace, reach(the presence and the benefits of)the holy month of Ramadan
أعتقد أن القارئ الأجنبي البعيد عن الثقافة الإسلامية يجب أن نوضح له أن بلوغ رمضان ليس فقط بمعنى أن يمتد عمرنا حتى نشهده مرة أخرى وإنما أن ندرك أيضا فضله وثوابه
