1. After your praise, elegy followed
For what misfortune can religion be consoled?

2. Nothing in life was like your day
It dazzled minds, and we see it will not be again

3. No danger remained, so every misfortune
Is insignificant to it, and every calamity seems minor

4. Guidance lost its serenity after your absence
Its movement has been stillness since you were gone

5. Does the news of your death still cause anguish among the tribes?
In it the tearful have a spring

6. The four quadrants sought aid from Najd
For the plains of your glory are saddened by the affliction

7. Be as you are, sorrowful, but with composure
The grieved differ from the grieving

8. The glory that diminished misfortunes
With the sword of the state, passed away
