1. The garden breathed out its bright lights,
And dawn unveiled its radiant pearls.

2. Good tidings of a blessed newborn,
Whose charm made fate extend a joyous hand.

3. Monday night brought the news,
Of two honorable ones, one of whom arrived.

4. Glory never looked down from its heights,
Until it smiled at its reflection in the water.

5. A crescent of fortune dispelling all gloom -
Its darkness cannot be traversed with lamps.

6. An essence of pure nobility never ceased
Roaming from glorious origin to origin.

7. Branching between two roots of glory and might,
Sharing the good fruits and meadows between them.

8. A father and uncle who proved their leadership,
Never attaining it through an heir or crown prince.

9. Continuous like flowing water, nothing emerged
Except you'd see earth's seas swirling.

10. The heights of glory rose with Sa'd's sons,
As stars reached the farthest zenith.

11. You are honored, O Judham, with such glories -
So dispute and rely on eloquence in your disputes.

12. You never strayed from Yemen's minaret,
Until all crookedness and leaning was corrected.

13. Through you many a path was widened,
Which before was narrow and constricted.

14. With praise a traveller came seeking you,
Glorifying at dawn and darkening at dusk.

15. You crossed the turbulent sea of war,
With swords plunging into the depths amidst the waves.

16. A battle in which eyes see only
Meteors of cavalry in a dark night of clamour.

17. Where blood is an elixir to incite
Any warhorse or steed to zeal and agitation.

18. And dreams expand the egg to be an ostrich,
When the wine of passion whips it into fervor.

19. Every being of value proceeded in order,
In rings of mane and locks of hair.

20. And every winding turn like a river,
Flowing between dunes amidst the bends.

21. In the palm of every protector what you saw
Would delight your mind and impassion you.

22. They are the lofty standard of Yemen,
So seek shade in its shadow and safety from heat.

23. And you will gain from it a sea, if
The winds of questioning blow harshly upon it.

24. Pure drinking waters, clear and unmixed -
Gathering of rare virtues not to be contained.

25. Whose resolve in peril does not waver,
Meeting misfortunes without panic or alarm.

26. Congratulate Abu Al-Hassan the Sublime, a fine youth
Who left no pleasing spectacle without beautifying.

27. Nicknamed Abu Al-Fadl, and he is all virtue embodied,
Good tidings the days murmur of.

28. You remained unmatched in glory and nobility
Until you were clothed in dual attributes.

29. So trail the hem of your cloak upon the stars proudly,
For you are of old prestige and pride.

30. You remain like two meadows of nobility and knowledge,
And gardens of joy for people, or relief.
