1. The beloved has returned from travel
Have you seen the full moon return from journeying?

2. The moon that delights the eye
Yet no trace remains on its face

3. Like the light of Nur ad-Din, the one with
Bounty and outstanding merit

4. Long may you last, O noble sons of Hijr
You are of esteemed and honoured lineage

5. O people of high station and knowledge
For those who understand and perceive

6. Your lofty ancestry was built
By other praiseworthy sons

7. A nature refined from the first
And good fortune smiled on Hijr
