פה ינוח חיים בר מנחם קריינדלער

נפטר ב דסוכות תרצא ל

חדל איש בינה שאו קינה

ידיד לבנים נתן מקרבנו

ידיו ולבו לאל אמונה

מוקיר חכמים הולך תמים

בחג עצרת נגדע הארז

נאסף לעמו זקן ושבע ימים

מנוחתו עולמים לגנזי מרומים

נתן צדקה לנסתרים

חייו שבעים שנה ושב למנוחה

מקום דרתו שמה במרומים

English translation of epitaph: 

Here is at rest from toil Haim son of Menachem Kreindler

Passed away on the second day of Sukkot, (5)691

Lament for a man of great wisdom

[He] was a friend for his children, [He] sacrificed himself [for their sake]

His hands and heart served to God

[He] was known as a wise man, kept the way of justice

[He] died at holiday [Shmini] Azeret

He is gathered to his fathers people, old man, [who] was satiated with days

Peace be upon him and eternal rest

Gave donations to the poor

[He] was seventy years old

and went to his last resting-place
