1. أَلا أَيُّها المَوتُ الَّذي لَيسَ تارِكي

    أَرِحني فَقَد أَفنَيتَ كُلَّ خَليلِ

    Ah, O Death, who will not leave me,

    Give me rest, for you have destroyed every dear friend.

  2. أَراكَ مُضِراً بِالَّذينَ أَحبُّهُم

    كَأَنَّكَ تَنحو نَحوَهُم بدَليلِ

    I see you harming those I love,

    As though you head toward them with a guide.
