1. في مَطلَعِ الأَسعادِ أَشرَقَ كَوكَبُ

    يَزهو لِفَهمي ذي المَقامِ الأَمجَدِ

    At the dawn of good fortune, a star shone.

    It shines resplendently for Fahmi, of the most glorious station.

  2. حَيثُ المُهَيمِنُ قَد حَباهُ بِفَضلِهِ

    نَجلاً سَيَظهَرُ بَينَنا بِالسُؤدُدِ

    For the Guardian has granted him, by His grace,

    a son who will rise among us in eminence.

  3. وَلَقَد دَعاهُ مُحَمَّداً مُتَيَمِّناً

    بِاِسمِ الرَسولِ وَذاكَ أَشرَفُ مَقصَدِ

    And indeed, he named him Muhammad, seeking blessing

    through the Messenger’s name—and that is the noblest aim.

  4. وَلِأَجلِ ذا قالَ البَشيرُ مُؤَرِّخاً

    يَحظى سُلَيمانَ بِيُمنِ مُحَمِّدِ

    And for this, the bearer of glad tidings said, recording the date:

    “Sulayman prospers through Muhammad’s blessing.”
