1. You are a pillar of prestige and perfection,
O prince, in whom pride is exalted.

2. You boast, yet none can surpass your eminence,
Long may you remain a spring of glory and beauty.

3. For you, the flowers spread their praise each dawn,
And the shooting stars trace your lineage and excellence.

4. Whenever the clouds pour down their rain,
We see that downpour as a gift from your hands.

5. Victory shone when you unsheathed a sword,
Seeking to thrust into the faces of foes.

6. O God, make him a divider and zealous warrior,
One with guidance, like the brave knight Ribal.

7. He inherited glory from a generous father
And towered in munificence over both kin and stranger.

8. The best of a noble, valiant people,
They are lions who have bred cubs.

9. You are a star whose fortune is light,
Glorious, who saw praise as his fortune.

10. Your pride suffices, as your father Bishr
Was a gracious lord who clothed the sublime with majesty.

11. Chief of bounty, source of justice, a full moon
From which a lucky star's radiance rose high.

12. You surpassed in meaning and generosity even Hatim,
None can be seen in the world to equal you.

13. His palm enriched the poor with munificence,
And in war he destroyed the warriors.

14. Ah, blessed tranquility overflowing with seas,
He who embraces it attains his hopes.

15. Long may you remain in might and triumph,
Safety and ever-increasing success.

16. And compose poetry in praise and find an excuse
With a prayer from an eloquent mouth.

17. You have adorned yourself with attributes
Worn as necklaces and bracelets.

18. So include it in your pardon, since it appeared;
O generous one, receive it welcomingly.

19. God has granted you lasting good fortune
That continues as long as time endures.
