1. The Eid is a blessed celebration
He met it with good tidings of its arrival

2. So it is right that he be congratulated
By God and by His Messenger

3. Fasting bore witness for him
Of what he entrusted to its vessels

4. Before its departure
And of what it saw of him fulfilling its right

5. In preserving it, pious, and revering it
It revives the night for him until dawn

6. With remembrance, and joins its dawn to its origin
It continues with his litanies, its blaze not extinguished

7. Except by its springs, the fervor of its thirst
He recites the Book of his God, delighted

8. In it for what fluency he was granted in its recitation
And when the night lets fall its curtains

9. The light of remembrance enriches him beyond any lantern
Pursuing the ways of the lawful, and if he passes

10. In his drinking and food, pious and moderate
You see him need little of drink

11. Or food along with its permittedness and scarcity
He has protected his hearing from listening to

12. Mention of song, and his tongue from saying it
For him are two Eids, the Eid of his breakfast
