1. For Allah there came a day whose bird flew in good fortune,
And its tidings were echoed in the mouth of the world.

2. A day adorned with the beauty of the first promise,
As the fulfillment shone at its end.

3. Egypt awaited in it the dawn smiling,
Waving with goodness and happiness unveiled.

4. A day that restored the freshness of days,
As the rain restored the beauty of the meadow.

5. The day the eminent leader appeared radiant,
Dazzling all sights with his splendor.

6. At his birth the world exalted and glorified,
Religion rejoiced and its pulpits shook.

7. The lineage of high honor and its elite,
The pure essence and its rarities.

8. The youth's decoration, from his guidance they took a spark,
None who passed by his path of glory strayed.

9. He settled in every heart so it became his seat,
And settled in every eye so it became his beholder.

10. His features soft, his priorities esteemed,
His dispositions shone, his elements pure.

11. O eminent leader, son of the exalted, with their determination they built
An eternal kingdom over time, unmatched are its glories.

12. Their achievements dazzle the days of old,
The Nile bears witness to its past and present.

13. They tamed the unruly so he gave them his reins,
And subdued the difficult until it became submissive.

14. O son of the king whose merits encompassed,
And crowned the pinnacle of the world with his achievements.

15. Revive for us the glory until its harvester returns,
And its flowers bloom in the bosom of the valley.

16. Praise of him flowed on the tongues of time,
I imagined that time itself was its poet.

17. The kingdom under his shade - its paths prospered,
And the religion under his reign - its rituals were upheld.

18. So look, in every direction you will find hope,
Determination dictates it and good fortune supports it.

19. O eminent leader, you are the protector of the youth's hopes,
Inspirer of the highest example and its promoter.

20. When you were called Prince of Upper Egypt, it shone
With tribes and its cities were adorned.

21. His past glory converses with him,
And his history accompanies him.

22. Still the eye of the king you guard,
The Overseer's eye as the world backs him.

23. May the rule of a heart remain high and eminent,
And may its protector and supporter of the Nile live long.
