إِذا حانَت وَفاتي فادفنوني

إِذا حانَت وَفاتي فادفنوني

بكرمٍ واِجعَلوا زِقّاً وِسادي

بكرمٍ واِجعَلوا زِقّاً وِسادي

When the time of my death comes, then bury me

When my death comes then bury me

When my time of death arrives, bury me

In a vineyard, and make a wineskin my pillow,

With generosity and make my shroud a pillow,

In a vineyard, and make a wineskin my pillow

وابريقاً إِلى جَنبي وَطاساً

وابريقاً إِلى جَنبي وَطاساً

يروّي هامَتي وَيَكونُ زادي

يروّي هامَتي وَيَكونُ زادي

And a pitcher at my side, and a cup

And place a jug by my side and a bowl

And a pitcher by my side, and a drinking bowl

To quench my head’s thirst and be my sustenance.

To quench my thirst and be my provision.

To quench my skull and serve as my provisions
