1. Good tidings! The noble Sa'id has granted
The schools relief, and he is praiseworthy for it.

2. Upon his arrival to investigate,
He conferred them honor and pride beyond measure.

3. He rewarded them from his bounty beyond what
They hoped for, and achieved the glorious deed.

4. May he remain delighted with Egypt, succeeding
In doing good however he begins and repeats.

5. I have not spoken this happily chronicling it,
Except the archives tell of the noble Sa'id.
