قِف عَلى ذا الضّريحِ ثمَّ تَرحَّمِ
وَاِتْلُ شَيئاً مِنَ الكَلامِ القديمِ
Stand at this tomb, then pray for mercy.
Stand by this tomb and offer a prayer,
And recite something from the eternal Word.
And recite some verses from the old lore.
فيهِ مِن ذَوي الصّلاحِ شهيدٌ
ماتَ طَعناً وَاِنقادَ بِالتّسليمِ
Within it lies a martyr among the righteous.
In it lies a martyr of righteous folk,
He died by stabbing and yielded in submission.
Who died from being stabbed, submitting to the divine will.
مُصطَفى الغَندور ابنِ مَجد كرامٍ
أُمطِروا بِالرّضا رِضاءِ الرحيمِ
Mustafa al-Ghandur, heir to the glory of noble men,
Mustafa Al-Ghandur, son of glorious nobility,
who were showered with favor, the Merciful's favor.
They were saturated with the satisfaction of the Merciful.
مُذ دَعاهُ الإِلَهُ نَحوَ جِنانٍ
وَسَرى عِندَ ذا بِقَلبٍ سَليمِ
Since God called him toward gardens,
Since the Divine called him to the gardens,
and he journeyed then by night with a sound heart,
And he walked by this with a wholesome heart.
فازَ في دارِ الخُلدِ أرّختُ سَبقاً
وَمَقرّاً في جَنّةٍ وَنَعيمِ
he won precedence in the abode of eternity—I recorded the date—
He won in the Abode of Immortality, I have recorded his precedence,
and a dwelling in a garden and bliss.
And an abode in Paradise and bliss.
Sol 6.1
