ميت مات في محل قراره
لم يغب عن محله وجواره
A dead man died in his place of rest
He did not disappear from his place and neighborhood
سود الشعر عارضيه فغابت
شمس خديه في بهاء نهاره
The blackness of his hair appeared and his
Cheeks' sun disappeared in the brilliance of his day
قد علمنا وليس في ذاك شك
أن من مات سودوا باب داره
We knew, and there is no doubt in that,
That whoever died, darkened the door of his house
