1. Hanna Salameh said goodbye with well-being, he is gone
To the bliss of a Lord under whose protection he was fortunate

2. He never ceased to be of the people of nobility and piety
Striving for what pleases God and making effort

3. In a grave where angels of the sky have alighted
Spreading over him a banner of light that was hoisted

4. Above it, the date proclaimed aloud
That Christ, by the grace of John, bore witness
