1. مَقابرُ من ماتوا مواطنُ راحةٍ

    فلا تكُ إثرَ الهالِكينَ جَزوعا

    The graves of those who died are places of rest;

    So do not be distraught over those who have perished.

  2. وَإن تَبكِ مَيتاً ضمَّهُ القَبرُ فادَّخِر

    لِمَيتٍ عَلى قيدِ الحياةِ دُموعا

    And if you weep for a dead man whom the grave has embraced, save

    Some tears for a dead man who is still alive.
