1. This noble lady of the Akkawi family has passed
Alas, making every eye shed tears of blood

2. She has joined Tanios son of Nasr, her companion
So they dwell together in the abode of greatest bliss

3. She has left this life and departed
Leaving behind virtues in people unconcealed

4. And for her sake the historian has written lines
To give the good news of salvation to Maryam
