1. ثوى طيَّ هَذا اللحد مندرجاً بِهِ

    كَريمٌ تحلّى بالتُقى وَالمكارمِ

    Within this tomb he rests, enclosed in it,

    A noble man adorned with piety and noble virtues.

  2. بكى آل صيداوي الحبيبَ بادمعٍ

    وَتَبكي عليهِ غاديات الغمائمِ

    The Saydawi family wept tears for their beloved,

    And the clouds that come at dawn weep over him.

  3. فجاد ثراهُ الغيثُ سيلاً ومَن بِهِ

    بتأريخهِ والاهُ غيثُ المراحمِ

    So may rain drench his grave in torrents, and may the one within it—

    In the words of his chronogram—be favored by a shower of mercies.
