1. يا سيداً نال من مجدٍ ومن كرمٍ

    محامداً كل ذي فضلٍ يفتنها

    O lord who has gained, through glory and generosity,

    Praiseworthy qualities that every person of merit puts to the test.

  2. هنيت في رتبةٍ عليا مشرفة

    جاءت خلائقك الغرا تزينها

    Congratulations on a lofty, honorable rank;

    Your splendid virtues have come to adorn it.

  3. فاسلم لها رتبةً يشدو مؤرخا

    حاط النقابة تحسينٌ يحسنها

    So remain safe in that rank, as one sings to mark the date:

    Tahsin has safeguarded the office of naqib, enhancing it.
