נפטר ד ניסן

תרסד

אברהם שב למקומו [בראשית יח, לג]

נקבר בית עולמו

רוחו עלה מרומה

הגוף שב לאדמה

מאד גדל השבר

בניו יבכו מרה

ליום הובל לקבר

טרם זמנו נגזרה

מיתת איש תם מ

אברהם סגל בן

הם ליטמאן הלוי

תנצבה

English translation of epitaph: 

 

Passed away on 4 of Nisan (5)664

Avraham

Returned to his place [Gen. 18:33]

He was buried in eternal house

His soul ascended to the heaven

His body returned to earth

The pain increased very much

His sons will bitterly cry

At the day he is taken to grave

His time has stopped too early

Death of a honest man Mr.

Avraham Segal son of Litman Halevi

May his soul be bound in the bundle of life
