1. أَظَلومُ حانَ إِلى القُبورِ ذَهابي

    وَبَليتُ قَبلَ المَوتِ في أَثوابي

    My going to the graves has become inevitable

    And I have worn out before death in my clothes

  2. فَعَلَيكِ يا سَكَني السَلامُ فَإِنَّني

    عَمّا قَليلٍ فاعلَمِنَّ حِسابي

    So peace be upon you, my home, for I

    Will know my account before long

  3. جَرَّعتِني غُصَصَ المَنِيَّةِ بِالهَوى

    أَفَما بِعَيشِكِ تَرحَمينَ شَبابي

    You made me drink the cups of death passionately

    Will you not then have mercy on my youth?

  4. سُبحانَ مَن لَو شاءَ سَوّى بَينَنا

    وَأَدالَ مِنكِ لَقَد أَطَلتِ عَذابي

    Glory to Him who, had He willed, would have reconciled us

    And removed from you - you have indeed prolonged my torment
