1. O prince of hearts, may God protect you
And care for you, O prince of hearts

2. You are the epitome of all princes in nobility and merit
And loftiness, and you are the beloved of all

3. None hate you except the enemies whose swords are bloodied
And whose spears are reddened like dye

4. And it is wonderful that you make peace
Just as you waged war in battles before

5. You captivate those who refuse and take the hearts of loved ones
And every captive craves your pleasure

6. Your face is radiant and it is a light that appeared
On a crescent moon at the start of graying hair

7. Always a mirror of sincerity in serenity
For the serenity in a soul without corruption

8. In you are the most virtuous traits in which
The fruits of the gifted and the earned grow

9. In you are clemency and generosity by nature
Nothing strange for the Hashimite family

10. And of knowledge you have the greatest share
Balanced by the like of cultivation

11. This is an image I composed, framing its crescent moon
In a frame narrower than what it deserves

12. The eye glanced at it fleetingly and showed
A hint of your magnificent beloved self

13. Egypt prides itself on the rising of its just ruler
And wise governor above fault or doubt

14. It welcomes whatever eloquent guest visits
Whose stature cannot be matched and whatever man of letters

15. A shining light towards which lyrics bow down
Humbly before the revered tribune

16. O you visitor whom it encounters, greeting warmly
Wherever you arrive with a welcome

17. We are a people whom your sublime kindness has honored
And who have attained a share of its bounty

18. Among them your neighbor, yet it is no wonder
A stranger stays protected by a stranger

19. It was generous of you to allow them on
A day of prosperity a glimpse from up close

20. Their gratitude, as you saw, reveals clearly
The trace of rain in fertile soil

21. O prince of hearts, may God protect you
And care for you, O prince of hearts
