لغنطوسَ الكَريمَ مَقَرُّ عَفوٍ
لَهُ الرحمنُ بِالرِّضوانِ عَمّا
The generous protector's abode is forgiveness
The Merciful forgives him with contentment for what has passed
مَضى لِنَعيمِ خالِقِهِ وَأَبقى
لآلِ القَشعَمِيِّ أَسىً وَغَمّا
For the bliss of his Creator he remained
For the Qashami family he left behind sorrow and grief
فَتىً قَد كانَ في الغَمراتِ رُكناً
وَلِلأَيتامِ كانَ أَباً وَأُمّا
A young man who was a pillar in tribulations
And was a father and mother to the orphans
قَد اِبتَدَأَت أَوائِلُهُ بِخَيرٍ
وَنالَ مُؤرّخاً بِالخَيرِ ختما
His beginnings were with goodness
And he attained the seal of goodness in history
