The Khedive in Egypt has an Eid festival,

للخديوي في مصر عيد إمام

1. The Khedive in Egypt has an Eid festival,
I cannot enumerate his virtues in an Imam.

لَستُ أُحصي أَوصافه في إِمامِ

With glories over the kings of all people.

بِالمَعالي عَلى مُلوك الأَنام

Whose troops he managed with care.

ساس فيها جُنودَه باهتمام

Feared by the army of every ferocious lion.

خافَها جَيشُ كُل لَيث همام

In the sky of joy after fasting.

في سَماء السُرور غب الصِيام

Like a lion cub after weaning.

٦. وَاِزدَهى في عُلومه بذكاء
طوسن شبله عقيب الفِطام

With lifelong prayer.

مُخلص في الدعا بِطُول الدَوام

The Khedive in Egypt has an Eid festival.
