1. The one whose light shone among angels returns
Anton Ayoub, the devout, the most virtuous
١. فاز الذي بين الملائك يرتعُ
أنطون أيوب التقي الأروعُ
2. Why should we grieve like those who imagined
That souls will not return to their Lord
٢. فإلام نحزن كالذين توهموا
أن النفوس لربها لا ترجع
3. May God forgive him and double his reward
For he has passed on with his gifts dispersed
٣. غفر الإله له وضاعف أجره
فلقد ثوى وهباته تتوزع
4. His faith in God was steadfast like a mountain
The world may shake but it does not shake
٤. ويقينه باللَه طودٌ راسخٌ
تتزعزع الدنيا ولا يتزعزع
5. Therefore his soul calls out "Intercede for us"
O Ayoub family, the maiden intercedes
٥. فلذا تنادي نفسه أرخ لنا
يا آل أيوب البتولة تشفع
