1. I despaired, where is the way of patience?
This separation and decrease in number!

2. You blame my sickness and crying,
While your affection melts my body.

3. May God prolong the life of an unjust time,
And accomplish its events and struggle.

4. It did not describe any distress that pleased me,
Nor were its moments free of misery.

5. I wished you well, O Generous one,
Though hastened before reaching the time.

6. You have certainly amazed most people,
You are truly the Savior they believe in.

7. The doves came to you as if the doves
Came to you having scratched and picked them.

8. By God! Which crescent has vanished?
By God! Which sword went back in its sheath?

9. I lost you when grey hair appeared,
If only the youth found what was lost!

10. Welcome, welcome to the rider from his she-camel,
Welcome, welcome to the guest that visited!

11. I used to cry for the slightest harm,
That bothered you from anxiety or sleepiness.

12. And I fear an hour in which I do not see you,
So I wished between eternity and perdition.

13. Neither the water in the back of a desolate land quenched my thirst,
Nor did the shade in the belly of a cold valley cool me.

14. If you preceded me on the path of eternity,
Then I am on the course of that aim.

15. And if after you I freely raved,
Before you I was a captive of gloom.

16. You leaned when on the day you lost your brother,
And it was followed by you establishing the poles.

17. And I hoped for what was lost from you in you,
The death of enemies and life of envy.

18. You were taken and a father's refusal did not fill my chest with you,
Nor an ancestor's refusal of an ancestor.

19. And before entering the dreadful fray,
And your tearing [death] painfully by fate.

20. I wander between your two graves sadly,
Why not when my heart and liver are with it?

21. A second the bitterness of which does not subside,
And a first the heat of which does not diminish.

22. Woe to you two, a beneficial loss,
Though it was disliked being near the Worshipped Lord.

23. So patience upon His destiny,
To Him patience, His rules cannot be rejected.

24. The end of creation is what it attained,
And the fate of all creation is what came to pass.

25. I used to display anguish over calamities,
Even if it was specific to me and lonely.

26. And if you thought me lonely after you, O brother,
God made the country desolate without you.

27. I wouldn't live the likes of it,
But it is a term or time.

28. You are of a group whose concern
Is not for the possessed of injuries and wounds.

29. For them the letter meem, how many have become teary-eyed,
By their merits, and were cured from blindness.

30. If they resided, no storms frightened them,
And if they set out towards grave affairs, they sat.

31. Either a preceding leader or a succeeding follower,
Your father who begot you suffices you.

32. And if they stab with the spears of censure, I saw
The outstretched elevated positions aim.

33. By the decision of fate and its clarification,
And the tying of matters and untying of knots.

34. Have mercy on someone whose heart,
For your afflictions has worn all bandages.

35. It turns the gaze of its eyes,
And if it intends to hasten it, it cannot.

36. So it knows me apart from those groups, and heads
Towards me apart from those grandchildren.

37. And it complains even if it is not speaking
By sending a glance or extending a hand.

38. And who do I have, if I could heal
What was retained of wealth or locked up?

39. I wished if the departed had lived,
His life would be eternal if alive everlasting.

40. I asked for beauty so others insulted it
Nothing of an eye or cheek turned away.

41. The fires did not subside within my folds,
Even if it was woven with ice.

42. How can I incline towards a beloved,
While my flesh is between the fangs of a lion?

43. Oh death! What purpose is hoped from you?
What bribery relied upon?

44. You turn not away harm from anyone,
Nor stop at a limit.

45. You seize the brave and the coward equally,
The claws of a lion like a baaing goat.

46. Oh sole consolation of his loved ones,
Honor is difficult without you now you're singled out.

47. May God water your grave from a vanished cloud,
And fulfill the good He promised you.

48. May it be covered by every soft foliage,
Orderly greenery and scattered light.

49. May it shake off anyone chasing its branches,
And lump together its water that flows.

50. When the downpour strips off its garments,
It doubles its meadows or flows down.

51. And if an opponent wipes the water of the eyes,
Its own generous gift flows or streams.

52. Its clothes are always renewed, flowing
Over its plains and mounds.

53. You would reach my fallen house that you were
Its pillar and support.

54. What you sowed of grief in me, is it surprising?
How not when the water of my eyes does not dry?

55. When the blamers circled me I obeyed anguish
And disobeyed violent undoing.

56. It is reprehensible to blame the grieving one,
When he cries remembering who he lost.
