1. Al-Mawsili has departed, and thus departed
The blossoms of flowers and the cups of wine,

2. And what playfulness remains to remain
The life of Al-Mawsili in time?

3. The flowers will weep for him and the delights,
And will gladden them the embrace of affection,

4. And the coquette will weep for him when he departed
But she who recites the Quran will not weep for him
