كم سبحت أربع جوار

With their praises the Lord

لَها بِتَسبيحِها حُبورُ

وَمِن صَباً أُختُها الدَبورُ

That somber one and the crosser

تِلكَ الغُمَيصاءُ وَالعَبورُ

The graves relinquish their dead

Except fear their Lord comes to naught

That ruin will not befall?

أَن يَتَداعى بِهِ الثُبورُ

With a stumble that has no shelter

بِعَثرَةٍ ما لَها جُبورُ

Yet only crossing is awaited

وَإِنَّما يُنظَرُ العُبورُ

The Psalms tell of his merit

دَلَّ عَلى فَضلِهِ الزَبورُ
