ودعتك الرحمن يا دنيا البشر لم يعد لي فيكي وقت أو مقر مر من عمري كثير وانقضى إنما الدنيا على كف القبر ودعتك الرحمن يا دنيا البشر لم يعد لي فيكي وقت أو مقر مر من عمري كثير وانقضى إنما الدنيا على كف القبر أزف الوقت ليوم آخر تسكن الروح جلال المستقر فاذكروني حيث لا ذكرى سوى دعوات تملأ القبر زهر ودعتك الرحمن يا دنيا البشر لم يعد لي فيكي وقت أو مقر اللهم صلي وسلم وبارك عليه وعلى آله وبركاته
