قد هدَّ ركن العلم موت باقره
وضعضع الإسلام فقد ناصره
The death of its Bāqir has shattered the pillar of learning,
And the loss of its champion has brought Islam low.
يا طالباً تاريخ عام فقده
هل هد ركن العلم موت باقره
O seeker of the year’s date of his passing:
“Has the death of its Bāqir shattered the pillar of learning?”
Sol 5.6
