لما قدمت رِحاب من رَقى ملك

قَدمت هذي الروح هديا لِلملك
When I entered the precincts of one who rose to kingship,
When Rihab arrived from Raqa as a gift
I offered this soul as a gift to the king.
This soul arrived as a gift to the king
اِينَwhere المناصescape وَقَدand already نَأىhas grown distant عَمَّنfrom those who هَلَكperished
اِينَ المناص وَقَد نَأى عَمَّن هَلَك

بَرَزت لِمُشتاقِ النَعيم جَحيم
Where is escape, when it has grown distant from those who perished?
Where can I escape when he is far from the perished ones
Hell appeared to one yearning for bliss.
Hell has emerged for the ones yearning for paradise
