1. What good is life on the peninsula after
Time has stumbled and Abdelwahid died
١. ما خَيرُ عَيشٍ بِالجَزيرَةِ بَعدَما
عَثَرَ الزَمانُ وَماتَ عَبدُ الواحِدِ
2. Generosity and nobility died with him and we were included
In the grave of the generous, fragrant, glorious one
٢. ماتَ النَدى وَالجودُ مَعهُ وَضُمِّنا
قَبرَ الكَريمِ الأَريَحِيِّ الماجِدِ
3. The good men are gone and there remains
The weak men in this corrupt time
٣. ذَهَبَ الرِجالُ الصالِحونَ وَبُقِّيَت
ضَعفى الرِجالِ لَدى الزَمانِ الفاسِدِ
