1. Joy has spread far and wide
Bringing delight to all mankind

2. With gladness he danced and sang
Swaying in joyful abandon

3. The king waved his sleeves in a flourish
As gentle breeze sways the wet branch

4. Succession came swaying in joy
Striding proudly, trailing its train

5. A joyous day for the kingdom
When goodness and beauty shine

6. People of earth, rejoice today
When sorrow is banished away

7. No land singled out from its peers
But all share in joy and sorrow

8. Succession has seen in its sons
Thanks to God what it had wished

9. It saw its lion cubs embody
His image and meaning, matchless

10. The one who takes after his father
Can lion sire but lion junior?

11. They bared swords, displaying their merit
Their courage and zeal evincing

12. Took to the steel blithely, sans worry
The whetted blade eager to sing

13. Their steeds showed no fear or retreat
No weakness, no flight from the field

14. Their faces lit up brighter instead
Their composure and poise enhancing

15. If they resemble their father, no wonder
To please him is their life's mission

16. Had they eyed the steel in displeasure
It would crack and crumple in failure

17. Father of excellence, this is a day
In song and verse for you made

18. For you were spent coins in plenty
When kings themselves are sacrificed

19. Your clouds of bounty rained goodness
On all men in need by your grace

20. After this happy and blessed day
Only joy with you can they taste

21. Honoring you, attiring you grandly
Endowing you lands and abodes

22. Loving you, the noble turned kind
Each horde now a gentle reed

23. Yearning to endow you with more
Melting envy, spite, and cold greed

24. Good news to ranks and dignitaries
That the finest of all leads their breed

25. The noblest whom they serve and revere
The loftiest their hearing does heed

26. You, Hashimite scion, have gained
Over branches the uppermost reach

27. No striving for rank on your father's part
To raise you or build you a palace

28. Free from coveting wishes or dreams
Or prattle and murmurs from soul

29. What glory you missed that they gained?
It would shame them if you craved such a goal

30. God forbid! Yours is a house
Pleased with glory is your rule

31. If serving you made us feel proud
When we know full well how we've been

32. Your shelter fulfilled all our hopes
Had we wished for the sky, we'd have won

33. May God make your life always happy
Enjoying your rule and your friends

34. And grant them what they wish from your might
Grant us what we wish from your grace
