1. عن بَني راشدَ قد سارَت الى

    منزلِ طابَت بِهِ اكؤُسُها

    The sons of Rashid have departed to

    A dwelling where their cups are filled

  2. البسَت اولادها ثوبَ الأَسى

    وَبِه ثَوبُ الهنا مَلبسها

    Their children donned robes of sorrow

    And likewise robes of joy adorned them

  3. ضمَّها اللَهُ لِفردَوسٍ غدت

    فيهِ ارّخ وردةً يَغرِسُها

    May God gather them in a Paradise

    Where the best and most fragrant rose is planted
