1. Time greeted him with congratulations and welcome
Describing Yusuf's joy to the army

2. And the king's pleasure with him increased
So the Hashimite souls rejoiced for him

3. And our days smiled at his acceptance
In our Egypt, good news had spread everywhere

4. The whites of spears took pride in his return
Bronze lances were gladdened for it

5. And on the rifles shone the splendor of delight
With his presence among the Deawar soldiers

6. O friend, relax and live in bounty
O you of glorious traits and lineage Sasravi

7. Forgive, for time has sworn
That it will bring you pleasing gifts

8. So praise be to God who defeated the enemies
And granted you success, and high office

9. And clothed you in robes of awe, with which
Every successful man of good stock is distinguished

10. You remain in the army of happy Mohamed
Ever increasing in rank, morning and evening

11. Magdi said in praise, chronicling
Long live Yusuf of the splendid ranks
