1. O our dear one in Egypt we have learned
That with the consent of the Khedive he has triumphed
١. يا عَزيزاً لَنا بِمِصرَ عَلِمنا
أَنَّهُ بِالرِضا الخِديوِيِّ فائِزُ
2. We were pleased that you have risen and will continue to rise
So it is as if we have won what you have won
٢. سَرَّنا أَنَّكَ اِرتَقَيتَ وَتَرقى
فَكَأَنّا نَحوزُ ما أَنتَ حائِزُ
3. A rank which the tongues of the eminent have recorded
You are praiseworthy among the distinguished elite
٣. رُتبَةً أَلسُنُ العُلا أَرَّختَها
أَنتَ مَحمودُ في العُلا المُتَمايِزِ
