“قلَّ يا رسولَ الله عن صَفِيّتِكَ صبري، ورَقَّ عنها تَجَلُّدي، إلا أنّ في التأسِّي بعظيمِ فٌرْقتِكَ وفادحِ مصيبتِكَ موضعَ تعزِّ، فلقد وسَّدْتُكَ في مَلْحُودَةِ قبركَ، وفاضتْ بين نحري وصدري نفسُكَ، فإنَّا للّه وإِنَّا إليه راجعون،
فلقد اُسْتُرْجِعَتِ الودِيعَةُ وأُخِذَتِ الرَّهِينَةُ،
أما حُزْنِي فسَرْمَدٌ، وأما ليلي فَمُسَهَّدٌ إلى أن يختارَ اللّه لي دارَكَ الّتي أنت بها مقيمٌ”

“But misfortunes do not last forever (this they have in common with joys) but pass away or are at least diminished and become lost in oblivion. Life on the kapia always renews itself despite everything and the bridge does not change with the years or with the centuries or with the most painful turns in human affairs. All these pass over it, even as the unquiet waters pass beneath its smooth and perfect arches.”
