1. هَذا بِمصنعةِ الحفصيّةِ اِنسَبكا

    عَن إِذنِ مَن قطرَ إِفريقيّةٍ مَلَكا

    This was cast at the Hafsiya manufactory,

    By leave of him who ruled the land of Ifriqiya:

  2. محمّد الصادقِ العزمِ المُشيرِ بها

    لا زالَ شَمساً وَلا زالَت لهُ فَلَكا

    Muhammad al-Sadiq, true in resolve, the marshal there.

    May he ever remain a sun, and it remain his celestial sphere.

  3. لِيصعقَ الجورَ أَنشاهُ فأرّخهُ

    صُورٌ بِقالبِ نصرِ الحقّ قَد سُبِكا

    He fashioned it to blast tyranny; so record its date:

    A trumpet, indeed cast in the mold of right's triumph.
