1. Your life, what a tremendous calamity,
And its affair, a momentous tragedy,

2. We've been struck with the loss of Allah's prayers upon him,
Not a single night has shone since his demise.

3. The mounts did not return to the homestead,
Nor did the stars rise above the land.

4. Your life, the affliction is not exclusive,
Rather the affliction is common to all.

5. The meadows were watered with tears that poured,
From eyes that rained like a cloudburst.

6. In it the glory has passed and noble deeds,
In it the honor and ancient pride.

7. After his passing one called Hammam,
For affairs or said the generous remained.

8. As if the day we were deprived of him,
Sorrows had ravaged our souls.

9. Their cheeks torn by sorrow through the nights,
Though the journey of time brings lasting gloom.

10. Our spring was in every abode,
When the clouds hoarded their downpour.

11. Beautiful in action, praiseworthy in character,
His deeds adorned with generosity and eminence.
