1. They scattered the gardens' flowers upon you,
And I came to scatter my poems amongst them.

2. The adornment of youth and the adornment of students,
Are you in the sad tomb my home?

3. You left us while events were in watch
And life became a life of humiliation and captivity.

4. How much we needed you when an enemy transgressed
And the criers cried out for the home.

5. Where is the orator and where is the discipliner of prohibitions?
The hearing and sights have long awaited.

6. By God, why do you not answer a caller?
What has befallen you, O father of delusions?

7. Arise and erase what Cromer's right hand inscribed
In ignorance of the religion of the One Subduer.

8. You used to be angered by sluggishness whenever
It intended and plotted to cause stumbling.

9. The anger of the pious towards his Lord and His Book
Or the Farouq's anger towards the Chosen one.

10. Your body was too narrow for your extension, so it could not
Have patience upon you while you were a flame of fire.

11. That jihad took its toll on him and directed him
A resolve that directs the formidable perils.

12. Your right hand played with the spear and overpowered
The play of horsemen with the dangerous spear.

13. You hastened towards the most high, seeking its prominence,
And fate ran its course while you were in the race.

14. Or whenever hope swayed dejectedly,
The contingencies of fates rushed to it.

15. Resolve was difficult for me the night of his death notice
And I witnessed his procession so my resolve weakened.

16. The eulogizers raced in it, one by electricity
And one by steam.

17. I witnessed on the Day of Gathering, the day of his death,
And realized from it the stations of destinies.

18. And I saw how nations bid farewell to its men
The right of loyalty and the duty of reverence.

19. Ninety thousand around your coffin humbly
Walking under your swaying banner.

20. They traced with their tears upon the face of the earth
Lines of sorrow upon lines.

21. Sometimes they burst out wailing as if they were
The pilgrim caravan at the Kaaba of pilgrims.

22. And sometimes their humility made them seem
As if at the prayer niche listening to my recitation.

23. Humility overcame them so their tears
Flowed without restraint or wiping.

24. You were under their tears and sighs
Between a gushing torrent and sparks.

25. I hasten so the blaze seizes me and bends me
So the overflowing current repels me.

26. Had I not clung to the casket or its shades
I would have perished between hot ashes and seas.

27. How many chaste women on the day destiny turned you over
Tore off their veils upon you.

28. You traveled to bid farewell to a carried nation
In the coffin, unaware of news.

29. The onlookers' eyes were reassured so they tore
The face of the veil but did not enjoy the veil.

30. A barrier of sorrows and gloom stood between the eyes and it.
You were wrapped in the flag you purified

31. Of love for you, so it was the best emblem.
Two flags above the heads, both

32. Containing in its folds a secret of secrets.
The caller of separation summoned them so they came

33. Embracing at a burning edge.
By God, neither did the lover panic nor cry

34. For a frightening intention and distant burial place.
The crescent moon panicked over you the day you left it

35. Between the heat of sorrow and the heat of becoming faint.
Looking around, confused, making a choice

36. Of a man who contends on its behalf on the day of pride.
Surely the thirty years you prided with

37. Have become measured by the longest lifespans.
It added to history some white pages

38. Like the pages of the righteous.
I likened them to a fragrant spot

39. That contained the harvest of a perfumed garden.
You left them like an exemplar emulated in its footsteps

40. A hopeful of reaching and a pursuer of traces.
What about the sublime if they are landmarks

41. If it traveled between ignorant lands and deserts?
You continued to choose tough positions

42. Until you stood up to that Compeller.
And you demolished a wall excellently built

43. By Pharaoh of the stakes and rivers.
And you connected between our complaints and sheikhs

44. Honorable and virtuous elders in Parliament.
They uncovered the veil from the eyes so they saw

45. The harm and evils in sluggishness.
They rejected the prattling talk when they realized

46. The wrath of anger and the dialect of the garrulous.
And they threw them with two volumes, threw them

47. In the rank of zeros, not travelogue.
Woe to those positions! They were

48. Positions of an absent raging lion.
Neither threats nor the speech of the wary deterred him

49. From his resolute saying of caution.
So congratulations on your new residence and sleep in it

50. In bliss and enjoy the best neighborliness.
And welcome the great reward, the reward for what

51. You sacrificed for homelands of periods.
Excellent is the reward and excellent is what you have attained

52. In your two dwellings, and excellent is the outcome of the house.
