1. تَصَّبروا يا بَنِي الجَمَّالِ بَعدَ فَتىً

    نالَ الرِضى في جِوارِ الخالقِ الأَزَلي

    Be patient, O sons of al-Jammal, after the loss of a young man

    Who attained favor beside the eternal Creator.

  2. لِذاكَ إِذا نَظَمَ التاريخ قُلتُ بِهِ

    قَد حَلَّ في العَرشِ يوحَنّا مَعَ الرُسُلِ

    Thus, when the chronogram was composed, I said in it:

    Yuhanna has taken his place at the Throne with the apostles.
