يا رُبَّ ساكِنِ حُفرَةٍ

يا رُبَّ ساكِنِ حُفرَةٍ

أَبلَت جَديدَ جَمالِهِ

أَبلَت جَديدَ جَمالِهِ

Ah, how many a dweller in a grave

that has worn away the freshness of his beauty

تَرَكَ الأَحِبَّةٍ بَعدَهُ

تَرَكَ الأَحِبَّةٍ بَعدَهُ

يَتَلَذَّذونَ بِمالِهِ

يَتَلَذَّذونَ بِمالِهِ

has left his loved ones behind,

delighting in his wealth.

الخَلقُ كُلُهُمُ عِيا

الخَلقُ كُلُهُمُ عِيا

لُ اللَهِ تَحتَ ظِلالِهِ

لُ اللَهِ تَحتَ ظِلالِهِ

All creatures are the dependents

of God, beneath His shade.

فَأَحَبُّهُم طُرّاً إِلَي

فَأَحَبُّهُم طُرّاً إِلَي

هِ أَبَرُّهُم بِعِيالِهِ

هِ أَبَرُّهُم بِعِيالِهِ

So the dearest of them all to

Him is the kindest to His dependents.
