كَم أَخٍ صالِحٍ وَعَمٍّ وَخالٍ

وابنِ عَمًّ كالصارِمِ المَسنونِ

How many a good brother, uncle, and cousin

And nephew like a sharpened sword

قَد جَلَتهُ عَنّا المَنايا فَأَمسى

أَعظُماً تَحتَ ملحداتٍ وَطينِ

Whom death has distanced from us and so

Became greatest beneath slabs and clay

رَهنَ رَمسٍ بِبُهرَةٍ أَو حَزيزٍ

يا لَقَومٍ لِميّتِ المَدفونِ

A pledge at Ramess or Buhera

Oh people for the buried dead
