يا أَميراً ما رَأَيْنَا
مثْلَهُ فَضْلاً أَميرَا
O prince, we have not seen
The likes of him in virtue, O prince
يا أَبا الْعَبَّاس يا شَمْ
ساً ويا بَدْراً مُنيرَا
O Abu Al-Abbas, O sun and O shining full moon
O great in mind and manners since you were little
يَا كَبِيرَ الْعَقْلِ والْ
آدابِ مُذْ كَانَ صَغِيرَا
By Him we do not lie if we compared you one day we would fly
Your feast has come, poetry
والذي نكذب إن
قسنا به يوماً نطير
From you that made it free of confusion
After preceding from the elite of poetry whoever was an elite
قد أَتَى عيْدَكَ شِعْرٌ
منْكَ خَلاَّهُ حَسِيَرا
Good diction that competes
Its stringing like scattered pearls
بَعْدَ سَبْقِ مِنْ خَطَارِ ال
شِّعْرِ مَنْ كَانَ خَطِيرَا
It filled the body with healing
And filled the heart with joy
حَسَنُ اللَّفْظُ يَحاكِي
رَصْفُهُ الدُّرَّ النَّثِيرَا
It was from my constant worries and from my bitter life
What I store with me of gratitude is not little
مَلأَ الجِسْمَ شِفَاءً
وحَشَا الْقَلْبَ سُرُوراً
I will gift from it a garden
That neighbored your flowing water
كَانَ مِنْ عَارِضِ شَكْ
وايَ وَمِنْ دَهْرِي مَجيرَا
How much hardship you made easy for me
From the good of your blessings that was little
لَيْسَ ما يَذْخَرُهُ عِنْ
دِي مِنَ الشُّكْرِ يَسيرَا
It may be seen that the servant even if
He is with his Master a lot
سَوْفَ أُهْدِي مِنْهُ رَوْضاً
جَاوَرَتْ مِنْكَ غَدِيرَا
كَمْ عَسِيرٍ عَادَلِي مِنْ
حُسْنِ نَعْمَاكَ يَسِيرَا
قَدْ يُرَى الْعَبْدُ وإنْ
قَلَّ بِمَوْلاَهُ كَثِيرَا
