1. رعى الله أياما تقضت بقربكم

    قصارا وحياها الحيا وسقاها

    May God watch over the days that passed near you,

    so brief—and may the rain greet them and water them.

  2. فما قلت إيهٍ بعدها لمسامرٍ

    من الناس إلا قلبي أها

    Never since have I said “Go on” to a companion in nighttime talk

    among people, without my heart sighing, “Ah!”
