1. O my eyes, shed tears
For the noble, virtuous young man

2. His face is white as snow
Like the sun among the best of men

3. The sun is eclipsed by his death
The moon did not align

4. Mankind cries in grief
And even jinn mourn his passing

5. Wild beasts cry their anguish
When the news of him came

6. The generous, overflowing rain cloud
Bears the burden for his people

7. He gives abundantly, never stingy
Generosity is his way

8. Woe to me for his loss
My fortress lies broken
