نَبَأ أَتى مِن أَعظَمِ الأَنبِياءِ

لَما أَلَمَّ تَقَلقَلَت أَحشائي

News came from the greatest of prophets

When it pained me, my insides churned

قالوا حَبيب قَد ثَوى فَأَجَبتهُم

ناشَدتُكُم لا تَجعَلوهُ الطّائي

They said the beloved has passed away, so I responded

I implore you, do not make him be forgotten
