1. أَمّا القُبورُ فَإِنَّهُنَّ أَوانِسٌ

    بِجُوارِ قَبرِكَ وَالدِيارُ قُبورُ

    The graves are certainly companions

    Near your grave, and the dwellings are graves,

  2. عَمَّت فَواضِلُهُ وَعَمَّ مَصابُهُ

    فَالناسُِ فيهِ كُلُّهُم مَأجورُ

    Its afflictions have become widespread, and its disasters have become common,

    So all the people in it are rewarded,

  3. رَدَّت صَنائِعُهُ إِلَيهِ حَياتَهُ

    فَكَأَنَّهُ مِن نَشرِها مَنشورُ

    His life's work has been returned to him,

    So it is as if he is resurrected from it.
