1. The Eid prayer is not like other prayers
In all its states and conditions

2. No call to prayer or announcement
For those who gather under its banners

3. You recite openly at dawn
The Opening Chapter of the Book without objection

4. Glorify the name of your Most High Lord
Who created the sun and the likes thereof

5. Before you start, say Allahu Akbar seven times
In the first rak'ah, then five without pause

6. Apart from the opening Allahu Akbar
From which you gain provision and purpose

7. And in the next rak'ah say Allahu Akbar
Five times, not counting as before

8. The opening Allahu Akbar and prostration
In all of it, our familiar prostration

9. Likewise the greetings, tashahhud, and listening
Attentively to the sermon, an essential thing
