1. اللَهُ أَكبَرُ يامُحَمَّد

    نَبَتَ العِذارُ وَتَمَّ أَسوَد

    God is greatest, O Muhammad!

    Your cheek-whiskers have sprouted and grown full and black.

  2. ذَهَبَت مَحاسِنُكَ الَّتي

    كانَت يُقامُ لَها وَيُقعَد

    Gone are those charms of yours

    For which people used to rise and sit.

  3. فَلَكَ العَزا فيما مَضى

    وَلَنا الهَنا فيما تَجَدَّد

    So condolences to you for what has passed,

    And congratulations to us for what has newly appeared.
