1. O people of Qalyub with good tidings rejoice
You will be safe from harm atop fortune's ridge

2. And you will see, in fair accord, the finest sights
With all attaining what each had hoped to bridge

3. For your governor has gathered every virtue
Like the full moon dispelling darkness from its edge

4. And what's recounted in your history
The Qalyub region thrived in days of privilege
