1. O Nasir al-Din, receive good tidings,
Conquests have adorned it with the finest glory,

2. It shines in the lands, east and west,
Rivaling the orbiting stars,

3. Rejoice in a beautiful achievement and victory,
That fills every ear with its news,

4. Majestic in description, renowned among people,
Beyond any words to encompass its extent,

5. This is the new Fez that took shape,
From which you chose the fortunate,

6. And its son, the prosperous, who makes
His fortified quarter and home prosperous,

7. When delegations come to you, each hoping
For your generosity, which clouds rain,

8. Seeking the Kaaba of virtues in you,
Making their pilgrimage and visitation to it,

9. Crossing the sea and its perils to show
How you seek enlightenment in obedience,

10. You welcomed them, and acceptance is part of its reward,
With pearls of wealth for those who obeyed in their homes,

11. And eyelids came to you with good news,
Each face showing joy for it,

12. As for those who harbored rebellion, they are disgraced,
Time has refused to lift their burden,

13. Time betrayed them, so terror rose in them,
Rising to lower their status among people,

14. And al-Tariqi was originally from this
Group, he did not attain what he desired and chose,

15. Can a branch bear fruit when it is uprooted
From its origin by a sinful hand?

16. God took from him an ungrateful traitor,
Did he feel safe from God and expect to escape?

17. How the frontier complained of his injustice when
He brought unbelief to its land and homes!

18. Rebellion appeared from him, brandishing a sword,
Until misfortunes scattered his hordes,

19. The fortunate one will not fail when he sees
The victory of the son of Nasr al-Din,

20. I have adorned my patron other than my Master
With a garden from my overflowing love,

21. And I pray that his supremacy will last
As long as I see the days and nights of time.
