رَمسٌ بِهِ مِن آلِ صافي نازِلٌ

كَثُرَت لِمصرَعِهِ الدُموعُ الذُّرَّفُ

A portrait descending from the family of unblemished virtue,

Abundant tears streamed for his death, flowing and pouring.

رَيّانُ وَلَّى في الشَبيبةِ راحِلاً

عَنّا وَبُرداهُ تُقىً وَتَعفُفُ

Rayyan turned away in his youth, leaving,

Chaste and shielded from us, of utmost modesty.

وَلَقَد تَمَتَّعَ بِالسَعادةِ فائِزاً

فيها بِحَظِّ كَرامةٍ لا يُوصفُ

He was privileged with happiness and success,

Endowed with honor beyond all description.

وَعِبارةُ التاريخِ تَنطقُ أَنَّهُ

بِالبِرِّ قَد نالَ الكَرامةَ يُوسُفُ

The chronicle of history proclaims,

With righteousness, Yusuf attained greatness.
