1. لِلَّهِ لِطفٌ خَفيٌّ في بَريَّتِهِ

    أَعيا دَواءٌ المَنايا كُلَّ نِطَّيسِ

    God has a hidden kindness within His creation.

    A cure for death has eluded every skilled physician.

  2. ما بالُ أَشباحِ قومٍ في الثَرى جُعِلَت

    لَم تُبقِ إِلّا حَديثاً في القَراطيسِ

    What of the bodies of a people laid in the earth,

    which left nothing but a tale on sheets of paper?
