Back of stone:
We saw her in the garden,
her pleasant garden,
With her companions
and her children,
The children she loved.
Her loved ones and her workers blessed her.
Her home was the shelter
of happiness.
Peace be upon her.
We saw her giving food
to the hungry,
And clothing to the naked.
We saw her give help
and succor to the aged,
And good counsel to the young.
She suffered not the stranger
to sleep in the streets.
She opened her door
to the wayfarer.
Peace be upon her.
