حَللتَ برَوضِهِمُ زهرَةً

فخُلقُهُمُ روضُ زَهرٍ خَصِيب

You bloomed like a flower in their meadows,

Their nature is a lush, blossoming meadow,

وإنَّ الزُّهورنَ إذا جَاورَت

زُهورا تزيدُ شذاً وتَطِيب

Flowers, when next to other flowers,

Increase in fragrance and grow more beautiful,

فسَوفَ تضراك بِهم دائما

فمَا غِبتََ عنَّا إذا ما تغيب

With them you will always thrive,

You were never far even when away,

سَقَيتَ بِخُلقٍ بدور جُهودٍ

فها قد جَنيتَ وِدادَ القُلُوب

With virtuous efforts you nurtured,

And so won the hearts' affection,

فهُم سلَفٌ وهُمُ خَلَفٌ

وهُم للكئِيبِ عَزاءُ الكئِيب

They are ancestors and they are descendants,

They are solace for the grieving one in grief.
