1. The longing for you rose in Najd,
It arose and caused an intense love.

2. The scent of musk spread,
It will remind you of the fragrance of dew.

3. The rain watered its melodies,
which I have longed for so long.

4. I do not forget, nor can I forget,
the time of loneliness and solitude.

5. It passed as it had to pass,
the short time of roses.

6. On the slopes of Baan, gracefully,
like a branch of Baan in coagulation.

7. It has a saliva for what
the toothbrush witnessed of honey.

8. When she walked gracefully,
on the day of parting and bidding farewell.

9. Among the caravan of the beautiful maiden
like beads on a necklace.

10. A girl of Bani Saad,
around whom Bani Saad is proud.

11. The glory of roses is to be picked
in sight of the mighty lion.

12. Nothing remains except a forbidden glance
of greeting and response.

13. Yearning fell from my eyelids
with the falling of pearls from a necklace.

14. I see my eyes and the stars
as allies against insomnia.

15. By God, I have not found
anyone to console between or reconnect.

16. It has perished, does the slain
lover of love intentionally perish?

17. My debt is unpaid,
nor did I fulfill my promise to them.

18. So tell the blamer, scolding
my agony and effort:

19. My heart belongs to my beloved,
and none but my beloved is in my heart.

20. My fate is to remain
a hostage of separation and distance.

21. And my opponent's judgement today -
who of people can I blame?

22. Still, my days
have a beautiful making and gift:

23. The return of Al-Qasim the bountiful,
and the wedding of the rightly guided Al-Majid.

24. So it shone at the peak
of glories, the moon of Saad.

25. And life was good in the shadow
of blessings, tranquility and luxury.

26. Through my father Ahmad
I attained the hopes of my affectionate brother.

27. And glory doubled its favors
with the unique, noble branch of knowledge.

28. Generous of origin and ancestry,
noble of father and grandfather.

29. Capacious of self and abode,
hospitable to guests and visitors.

30. He has a fire of villages he kindles
with good lineage and ancestry.

31. The Sunnah calls him
to its illuminated paths for guidance.

32. So say to the rider crossing
from Ghawr to Najd -

33. He sensed and passed
the ritual place, so be comforted at the tent.

34. May God guide you, you have attained
success, o son of Mahdi.

35. Repel the harm of his right hand,
the sea cannot avail against it.

36. He precedes to the goals
with ease, not with effort.

37. What can his neighbor possess
other than anxiety and misery?

38. Can one attain the speed
of lightning by running and exertion?

39. Where are flowers and heights
from pebbles and lowlands?

40. They are the masters and leaders,
of venerable age and refuge.

41. People who have remained
the people of solutions and ties.

42. For them in the course of their days
is a chain of glory.

43. In their white hands
is the clarity of bright faces.

44. For their newborn son is
a sign of superiority in the cradle.

45. It is no wonder, for in youth
are shadows of the lion.

46. The days have met in him
a pillar that does not sway.

47. The steadfastness of a lion does not bend
towards anything but purpose.

48. And the purest gold was
in the fire of his determination.

49. Does the refined gold fear
when purified from impurities?

50. It contains praise, so it did not regret
what was missed of fervor.

51. Why would it care for wealth?
So what excuse do the envious have?

52. Does anything but bleary eyes
hate the light of the sun?

53. O Abu Ahmad, you remain
lofty in cold and heat.

54. Noble of soul and neighbor,
noble in example and generosity.

55. For you are ascendance and glory,
from ascendance and glory.

56. With a wedding of everlasting joy,
blossoming with Saad.

57. And congratulatory breaths lasted,
from the sheikh and the young man.
