رمسٌ لعُّبودَ شوشاني الكَريمَ ثَوى
كَالسَيفِ قَد غالَهُ صَرفُ القَضا عَجلا
A drawing of the generous Ubayd al-Shawshani who rested
Like a sword worn down by the swift decree of fate
شهمٌ مَضى فَسقَتْهُ كُلّ غاديةٍ
غَيثُ الرِّضى وَسَقاهُ الدَمعُ إِذ هَطَلا
A magnanimous man has passed, and every passerby paused
The rain of contentment watered him, as did tears when they poured
قَضى الحَياةَ يَفعلُ الخَيرَ مُعتَصِماً
بِاللَهِ حَتّى قَضى في عَفوِهِ أَجَلا
He lived life firmly upholding good, clinging
To God until fate took him in His pardon
ان رُمتَ تاريخَهُ سَطِّر بِمضجَعِهِ
في دارِ مَولاهُ عَبدِ اللَهِ قَد نَزَلا
If you date his history, inscribe by his graveside
In the home of his Master Abdullah he came to settle
