O exalted king, who has ennobled
O exalted king under whom
the auspicious stars—no creature is his equal.
The Sauds have attained eminence, unequalled by any mortal,

Far be it for your chestnut steed, whose blaze is auspicious,
Except for your auspicious blondness, protected by destiny,
to stumble, when the revolving firmament is its servant.
Enduring while the heavens, revolving, serve you,
وَإِنَّماand only عايَنَsaw with its own eyes الأَملاكَthe kings ساجِدَةًprostrating
وَإِنَّما عايَنَ الأَملاكَ ساجِدَةً

إِلى عُلاكَ فَلَم تَثبُت قَوائِمُهُ
Rather, it saw the kings prostrating
Only to behold the kings prostrate themselves
before your exalted rank, so its legs could not stand firm.
Before your supremacy, unable to stand before you.
