1. برحمةِ اللَهِ في هَذا الضَريحِ فَتىً

    كَالغُصنِ عَن آلِ فيليبيذِسٍ ذَهَبا

    In God's mercy, a youth lies in this tomb,

    Like a branch, departed from the family of Philippides.

  2. فَانظُم لِمَثواهُ تاريخَ العَزاءِ وَقُل

    إِن الخَلاصَ لِقَسطنطينُ قَد كُتِبا

    So compose for his resting place a chronogram of mourning, and say:

    Indeed, salvation has been decreed for Constantine.
