1. He has generously bestowed the highest rank to its rightful people
Our Sultan, for he knows who deserves it

2. When a noble woman is gifted to a man worthy of her
He earns the gratitude of people for being her guide

3. And so now he has gifted her to one of noble lineage
Whose high station is further elevated by this honor

4. The Joumblatts of the world have all witnessed
That he is a man of great deeds, we narrate them

5. He claims lineage, for he has a pedigree
Like the radiant sun at dawn, no clouds can hide it

6. Al-Sa'eed is his father, and Al-Bashir
His grandfather, so through them he has gained similarity

7. How excellent, they are roots from which have sprouted
Publicly, praises that cannot be counted

8. He revived their glories with his good conduct
And one who preserves glory thus enlivens it

9. How many glories of other fathers he has contained
Yet he did not safeguard them, though he kept reviving them

10. Not everyone who attains high station is suited for it
Except the glorious one who continues to cultivate it

11. As the kinsman of the lofty, his rank adorned him
And elevated it, honoring and entertaining him

12. A man of chastity, never tainted by greed
Nor evil, but rather characterized by piety

13. The abode of troubles, yet nobleness is what
His brothers embody, so he loves and values it

14. He has many fine traits, beautiful in their entirety
Yet he is unmatched in his time in possessing them

15. With wisdom his rulings have flowed, and through them
All commands amongst people are enacted

16. Justice, integrity, and goodness are ingrained
In his nature, which spontaneously displays them

17. Vigilant at all times, straying not
From what is right, needing no reminder

18. And the Shouf has prospered under his rule
Boasting proudly of his governance, wandering in it

19. I congratulate him out of love for his good fortune
In being granted an elevation, lofty in status through it

20. A blessing that brought joy to all loved ones
Who profusely expressed thanks to its Granter

21. Abdul Hamid, whose brilliant history
Has been blessed with the highest rank for his family
