1. Oh what a joyful new moon of Shawwal we've been granted
Its nights are for us a celebration

2. It has brought us glad tidings of a prophet whose arrival
Revived despondent souls and heavy hearts

3. Its brilliant days shine radiantly upon us
Bestowing bliss and bounty without cease

4. In it the glorious Quran, a delightful companion
Was revealed, not once confining us with gloom

5. It lit up the abode of glory, a wedding of splendor
With providence its duration ever will increase

6. The sun entered the constellation of Saad, residing
In the lion, whose mighty grip all darkness shall cease

7. He is Yusuf the glorious, the shooting star whose light
Ever ascends, sovereignty and glory his to seize

8. His wedding compares to serenity and a life
Replete with joy and days stretching with ease

9. Onward flows his fortune, power in full bloom
With triumph, aided by divine decree

10. For him is our elation in all he's gained and brought us
Bounty fulfilled, purpose and means now guaranteed

11. My soul is ransom for him, a prince who has honored
Governance, made eminent nobility's rank supreme

12. A righteous branch sprung from his upright forebears
Generosity innate, through him made concrete

13. Noble traits and gentle character redouble his acclaim
Morals singular, within existence, deemed

14. In praising him the Arabs have expressed profession
While the Turks, how they doubles their odes it seems

15. A Turkish maiden offers him the wine of life most pure
Of which the very crescent moon would envy it seems

16. She sings a melody celebrating his history
A wedding blessed, a union exalted, so it seems
