رحمةُ اللَه عَليه إِنَّهُ

غاله اليَأسُ وَكانَ الأَمَلا

May God have mercy on him, for despair overcame him

And he was ever hopeful

وَيحُ قَومٍ خَذَلوه بَعدَما

أَخَذوا الميثاقَ أَلّا يُخذَلا

Woe to the people who abandoned him after

Taking an oath not to abandon him

شيمة الغدرِ بِمَن يَنصرهم

ذَهَبت يا اِبنَ عليٍّ مَثَلا

The trait of treachery against the one who helps them

Has passed, O son of Ali, as an example

آل بَيتِ المُصطَفى لَم تبرحوا

تَرِدونَ المَوتَ في ظلِّ العُلى

O family of Al-Mustafa, you did not cease

Meeting death in the shadow of the lofty rank

كادَت الكَأسُ الَّتي في قُبرصٍ

تُشبهُ الكَأسَ الَّتي في كربلا

The cup in Cyprus almost

Resembled the cup in Karbala
