هَذا اِبنُ يوسُفَ مِن بَني الدَبّاسِ قَد

سَقَتِ الدُموعُ ثَراهُ بَردَ مَعينِ

This is the son of Yusuf from the family of Dabbas

Tears have watered his tomb with cool spring water

شَهمٌ قَضى فَثَوى بِأَكرَمِ تُربةٍ

ضَمَّت جَوانِبُها أَجلَّ دَفينِ

A brave man who passed away and was laid to rest

In the most honorable soil which embraced this noble buried one

قَد كانَ في دُنياهُ أَفضَلَ عصمةٍ

تُرجَى وَأَحسَنَ قُدوةٍ في الدّينِ

In his worldly life he was of utmost chastity

Hoped for and the best example in religion

حَتّى مَضى نَحو الإِلهِ فَنالَ مِن

أَعمالِهِ لِلفَوزِ خَير ضَمينِ

Until he passed away towards God and attained

From his deeds the best gains for salvation

ومسطِّرِ التّاريخِ حرَّرَ قائِلاً

سِرُّ الخَلاصِ بَدا لِقَسطَنطينِ

And the recorder of history wrote saying

The secret of salvation appeared to Constantine
