لِصاحِبِ هَذا القَبرِ نَسأَل رَبَّنا

تَتابَعَ إِحسانٌ وَإِسباغٌ أَفضالِ

For the owner of this grave we ask our Lord

To bestow continuous benevolence and abundant grace

فَقَد كانَ مِقداماً كَريماً مَكرَما

مُحِباً لِخَيرٍ مُحيِياً سَنَةَ الآلِ

For he was generous and kind, held in high esteem

A lover of good, reviver of family tradition

وَقابِل مَولاهُ فَقوبِلَ بِالرِضا

وَأَصبَحَ في الفِردَوسِ في مَسكَنٍ عالي

He met his Master in acceptance

And dwells now in Paradise, in a lofty abode

وَحَسبُكَ أَنَّ في عَدنٍ قالوا وَأَرخوا

لِمُحرِزٍ حورُ العينِ حَفَّت لِإِقبالِ

It suffices you that in Eden, they said and set down

For the protected one, the houris of Paradise gathered for union
