1. لَقَد وافى بَني الطوا غُلامٌ

    ارانا وجههُ بدراً جميلا

    A boy has indeed come to the family of al-Tawa.

    He showed us his face—a beautiful full moon.

  2. فقل ارّخ يَعيش بخير حِرزٍ

    وَيدعون اسمَهُ عمّا نيلا

    So say, recording the date: may he live under the best protection,

    And they call his name Emmanuel.
