Every living being will die

كل حي سيموت

There is no permanence in this world

لَيْسَ فِي الدُّنيا ثُبُوتُ

Then silence follows

ثُمَّ يَتْلُوها خُفُوتُ

3. Words that are not sweet
After it only quietness

بَعْدَهُ إِلَّا السُّكُوتُ

Where is that omnipotence?

أَيْنَ ذَاكَ الْجَبَرُوتُ

5. I was printing on the forehead
So what is this silence?

٥. كُنْتُ مَطْبُوعاً عَلَى النُّطْ
قِ فَمَا هَذَا الصُّمُوتُ

That I see or prayer?

مَا أَرَاهُ أَمْ قُنُوتُ

In every horizon have a kingdom?

كُلِّ أُفْقٍ مَلَكُوتُ

And those adornments are empty

٨. زَالَتِ التِّيجَانُ عَنْهُمْ
وَخَلَتْ تِلْكَ التُّخُوتُ

9. Their homelands after them
Became desolate after they left

٩. أَصْبَحَتْ أَوْطَانُهُمْ مِنْ
بَعْدِهِمْ وَهْيَ خُبُوتُ

10. No one understands the words
Nor is anyone alive to make a sound

١٠. لا سَمِيعٌ يَفْقَهُ الْقَوْ
لَ وَلا حَيٌّ يَصُوتُ

11. Tombs were built for them
And their homes left empty

١١. عَمَرَتْ مِنْهُمْ قُبْورٌ
وَخَلَتْ مِنْهُمْ بُيُوتُ

12. The misfortunes of time did not protect them
When their glory declined

١٢. لَم تَذُدْ عَنْهُمْ نُحُوسَ الدْ
دَهْرِ إِذْ حَانَتْ بُخُوتُ

13. Those ambitions are extinguished
And those reputations have ended

١٣. خَمَدَتْ تِلْكَ الْمَسَاعِي
وانْقَضَتْ تِلكَ النُّعُوتُ

14. Indeed, the world is an illusion
Futile, it will pass

١٤. إِنَّما الدُّنْيا خَيَالٌ
بَاطِلٌ سَوْفَ يَفُوتُ

15. Man has in it
Nothing but piety as his supply

١٥. لَيْسَ لِلإِنْسانِ فِيهَا
غَيْرَ تَقْوَى اللهِ قُوتُ
