1. باتَ لا يدخَرُ الدُّمو

    عَ ولا يستُرُ الحَزَن

    He spent the night holding back no tears,

    nor concealing his sorrow;

  2. مُستهامَ الفؤادِ مُك

    تئباً ناحلَ البَدَن

    love-stricken at heart,

    dejected, wasted in body;

  3. مُذعِناً للفراقِ يَس

    تَودعُ اللَه من ظَعَن

    resigned to parting,

    entrusting to God the one who departed.
