1. O cloud, my eyes are stronger than you in shedding tears
I cry for my sorrow while you carry no sorrows

2. The fire of your lightning subsides after it flares up
While the fire of my heart remains an eternal volcano

3. Fire and water are the essence of the heart originally
Whenever the heart contains fires and floods

4. Contrasts that the turns of fate brought together
Indeed, it varied in lifetimes with different colors

5. I cried with joy, but when I gained solace from it
It lodged deeper, so the heart's fire grew

6. O my two beloved sons, my liver refuses to be torn apart
As long as I live, I will never forget the joy you gave me

7. You both fell like two stars, gazed at only
From high above pride, like two young camels

8. It comforts my heart that losing you both
Will weigh heavy on me on Judgment Day

9. O Fatah, your martyrdom opened for me
The door of greed to meet you rushing eagerly

10. And O Zaid, you increased my hope
That Allah will reciprocate kindness with kindness

11. When you intercede for your brother Fatah and follow him
May Allah meet you with forgiveness and pleasure

12. Greetings from me and from a grieving mother
Upon you forever, one and two together

13. I cry and make others cry in sorrow
When remembering our women and children
