1. Do not think of a faded beauty,
For I have no interest in coquettish eyes.

2. Prosperity has stripped me of its sword,
And I have long raised my terms.

3. I understood the meaning of thrift by
The word of God, so I was the best companion.

4. My name is famous in Tunis whenever
I am called, O Ramadan, my generosity answers.

5. My fate has led me to Paris
Where I met the slitter of my veins.

6. I recited there, verily from your wealth
And I returned from it as a lesson for the future.

7. And as I was buried in the shrine, mercy
Said: I have covered the grave of my martyr.
