كَفى حِكمَةً لِلَّهِ أَنَّكَ صائِرٌ

تُراباً كَما سَوّاكَ قَبلُ فَعَدَّلَك

Enough proof of God that you shall return

to dust as He made you before and shaped you.

وَإِن شِئتَ مَرأى كَيفَ كَوَّنَ ثانِياً

فَدونَكَ فَاِنظُر كَيفَ كَوَّنَ أَوَّلَك

And if you wish to see how He remakes again,

just look below you at how He first made you.

فَهَل أَنتَ في دارِ الفَناءِ مُمَهَّدٌ

مَحَلُّكَ في دارِ البَقاءِ وَمَنزِلُك

So are you in the abode of decay well-prepared?

Your place is in the house of eternity and your dwelling.
