1. Cry aloud to all the living - cry aloud
The knight of Arabs seized a quarter of the meadow

2. We were all struck by the arrow of struggle
If only we were struck by the arrow of love

3. O Death, you brought us together
With the water of life and the water of modesty

4. So what did you bring when you came
And what did you hide for the people of the tents

5. Cry aloud, cry aloud O twin of dew
Crying out little consolation

6. And we were both fellow reins
Two suckling children, intimate friends of purity

7. Upon Khaled ibn Yazid ibn Mazid
O commander of tears flowing copiously with water

8. Do not see weeping as disgrace
And draw near a burning coal with gentle breath

9. For sorrow has multiplied like blood
And misfortune magnified the status of weeping

10. Its essence is refuge for anguish
And its appearance a place for submission

11. The everlasting king who passed
Whose milk we lived on, filling our vessels

12. So the fresh dew perished, and the
Vigorous youth drenched in idealism

13. Thus glory upon him was humbled
And the house of generosity discarded refuse

14.
He who lit up the throne

15. And the court he filled with brilliance
Ask the king about Khaled and ask the kings

16. With suppression of injustice and banishment of enmity
Did he not slay them for the lions

17. Showing patience and granting them to the wolves
Did he not bring steeds from Babylon

18. Like the drinking cups of the elite
Then he unleashed upon the border their storm

19. With a piercing view and an immaculate soul
So when their ghosts appeared

20. Their splendor was like an ignorant star
And he barred the way for the subversive ones

21. And held back the hypocrites
He folded their matter forcibly in his hands

22. Folding the register and folding the cloak
They acknowledged the rule of swords

23. Which was more deserving to judge the case
And not by their appointment to authority

24. Rather they submitted loyalty to him
We were endowed with treasure and wealth

25. While the Imam met his end endowed with singing
And not that the shepherd of the flock was smitten

26. Rather, the shepherd of shepherds was smitten
Says al-Nitasiy when his stratagems

27. Against disease were stripped, and the cure
The shelter of nightfall and dwelling

28. Were severed, and the weather changed
Had the sun of the doves but returned

29. Yearning longingly, taking cover
His wedding was in the shadows of swords

30. His drink from the flowing of blood
The pride of his formidable pulpit

31. And the fire of battle was his fire for warmth
He wore no garb but perfumed wrappings

32. That glittered like the cores of illumination
So was there since he was until he passed

33. Anything beloved to him besides this nourishment?
Ibn Shayban was shocked with shock

34. Shock of lament, shock of intimate friendship, and shock of elevation
Khaled ibn Yazid ibn Mazid passed away

35. Moon of night, sun of morning
And he left his efforts between you

36. So strive, and me, slowly striving
Repel death with bitterness, and weep

37. For him with the weeping of women
My anguish for Khaled is eternal

38. Its guest is lingering misery
Patience did not restrain me from him

39. Nor was I content with the shame of consolation
I recalled the verdure of that time with him

40. And the prosperity of that meadow
Its visitors for generosity always present

41. As if their presence was for bestowal
And when the assembly of his council was known

42. As a serene spring for those thirsty minds
Tranquility averted harm from him

43. And manliness averted contention
When he unleashed the fetter of summer

44. And when he was the key to the bond of winter
My share of his comfort and care

45. Was abundant, not miserly nor greedy
I would see him with the eye of a chief

46. And he would see me with a brotherly eye
My yearning for Khaled is a yearning

47. That comes before me and another that follows
My yearning when he returns to dust

48. My yearning when he is shrouded for burial
Is there any serpent that can contain

49. The serpents of the faithless, barring fertility?
May the southern winds reward a king

50. With the scent of sweet basil, the best reward
How much has the earth buried

51. Of towering figures, worn by time
Abu Ja'far, may time honor you

52. With glory and grant you lasting survival
Your hoped-for breezes do not come from you

53. Nor does our wind carry contagion
Those assumptions have not returned confused in you

54. Nor has the valley of hope been blocked
The land is overthrown, so send to it

55. The breaste of the palm, seeking remedy
Your grandfather surpassed the glory of kings

56. And your father's life was recent radiance
He did not accept grasping the sword

57. Nor carrying the cloak on his shoulder
Thus he continued to ascend that glory

58. Wearing ambition, with the star
Until he climbed, and the ignorant thought

59. He had a dwelling place in the sky
And we heard that those wars

60. When recounted, twist into nonsense
And an affliction persists that does not cease

61. To repeatedly strike its branches with frailty
Scraping a register for them like scraping

62. A bucket, empty when poured like a bucket
And the strength of the rope of that arm

63. Was supple to that spine
So do not condemn his righteous days

64. And what he built of the greatest edifices
For God knows that you love nothing
