1. قبرٌ سقاهُ اللهُ غَيثَ كرامةٍ

    وروَى برحمتهِ جوانِبَ تُربهِ

    A grave—may God water it with a rain of honor,

    and, with His mercy, drench its surrounding soil.

  2. مِن فوقهِ أيدي المؤرِّخِ سَطَّرتْ

    الياسُ زَهَّارٌ برحمةِ ربِّهِ

    Above it, the chronicler's hands inscribed:

    “Elias Zahhar, in the mercy of his Lord.”
