1. The son of Hammad's worries have lessened somewhat,
Fewer people visit him now than before.

2. What was hidden is now apparent, as misfortunes arise
When one who postpones his death sees his time run short.

3. Except for the homes of his daughters, his dwellings are deserted,
His signs and shelters lie in ruins.

4. All that was beautiful is now clearly gone,
Except for singing, strumming, and chanting.

5. So it remains, alive, sending an example,
No one owns you but your own deeds.
