1. أما ترثي لجسمٍ عاد رثا

    وناح له الحمام جوى ورثى

    Will you not pity a body grown threadbare,

    For which the doves wailed in anguish and mourned?

  2. وترحم ذا دموع فيك أضحت

    تحث على البكاء دما وتحثى

    And have mercy on one whose tears for you have come

    To urge the weeping of blood and to be scattered?
