1. هلك الشقاء مقدماً ومسبقاً

    وأبو دعيبٍ نال حتفاً ملحقا

    Misery perished first, ahead of the rest;

    And Abu Duʿayb met death in turn;

  2. وحماد يوسف ثالثٌ لهما فقل

    أجلٌ قريبٌ نالهم متطرقا

    And Hammad Yusuf was their third—so say:

    An imminent death approached and overtook them.

  3. أودوا وبادوا هالكين فارخوا

    رهقوا بموتهم جحيماً محرقا

    They perished and vanished, destroyed—so record the date:

    Through their death they reached a scorching Hell.
