1. My eyes shed generous tears for you both
Be generous and do not fail your promised day

2. Do you know for whom you both shed those tears?
For the son of my mother I spent the soaked night awake

3. The earth spun around with us, or almost did
Oh how anxious I am for I have met adversity

4. Oh eye, so cry for a pure man whose ways
Are difficult to monitor, easy when guided

5. He takes no pleasure in harming his people in anger
Nor would you see him when appointed as judge

6. He doesn’t accuse his cousin’s son in insult
Nor sneak to the neighbors with gossip

7. It is as if The Merciful created his image
As a golden dinar that people see minted

8. Go O noble one, may God grant you His Paradise
And we are parted while you are immortalized

9. You lived among us without shameful acts
Until the Lord of mankind took you praisingly
