1. لِفَتاةِ آل الموصلي مناحةٌ

    ادمى العيونَ بها مُصابٌ مؤلمُ

    For a maiden of the al-Mawsili family, a lament:

    a painful calamity has made eyes bleed therein.

  2. ناحَت نوادبُها صباها وهي في

    فردوس رحمة ربها تَتَبسَّمُ

    Her mourners lamented her youth, while she, in

    the paradise of her Lord’s mercy, smiles.

  3. وَلِذا أَبول لمن بتأريخٍ بكت

    عند المسيح اليوم باتَت مريمُ

    And so I [say] to her who wept, in a chronogram:

    Today Maryam has come to dwell with Christ.
