هذا ضريحُ كريمِ قومٍ فاضلٍ

فَقَدتْ بنُو الدَّهَّانِ صبراً إذ فُقِدْ

This is the tomb of a generous and noble man

The people of Dahhan have lost their patience now that he is gone

وعليهِ قد خَطَّ المؤرِّخُ أحرُفاً

للحقِّ في بيروتَ جرجُسُ قد شَهِدْ

And on it the historian has inscribed letters

For truth in Beirut, George has been martyred
