1. Your pride towers above the maidens
For time has chastened your father
١. لُبابُ تَكَبَّري فَوقَ الجَواري
فَإِنَّ أَباكِ أَعتَبَهُ الزَمانُ
2. Whenever I bring together Abu Nasr and Egypt
Time has no place between them
٢. مَتى أَجمَع أَبا نَصرٍ وَمِصراً
فَما لِلدَهرِ بَينَهُما مَكانُ
3. A youth whose days are for me a Feast of the Breaking of the Fast and the Day of Immolation
And Nayruz counted as a festival
٣. فَتىً يَوماهُ لي فِطرٌ وَأَضحى
وَنَيروزٌ يُعَدُّ وَمِهرَجانُ
