مُنى النفوس الهنا وراحةُ البدنِ

مراحُها الأمنُ في سرٍّ وفي علنِ

The souls' wish and the bodies' comfort

Its ways are safety, secretly and openly

رنا لها طرفُها بنيلِ مطلبها

فاستبشرت بالذي ترجوهُ من مننِ

Its eyelids have chirped with the attainment of its wants

So it rejoiced at what it hopes for of favors

ضمت سعادتها لما به ظفرت

من أمنِ أسعدِ ملكٍ محسنٍ حسنِ

It has combined its happiness with what it has obtained

Of the most fortunate security of a beneficent, beautiful king

يلقاك بالبشر طلقَ الوجهِ مبتسماً

تغنيكَ رُؤياهُ عن أهلٍ وعن وطنِ

Who meets you with a cheerful face smiling

His sight makes you needless of family and homeland

كفاكَ من وصفهِ الشريفِ أنه من

بيتِ الذي جاءنا بالفرضِ والسننِ

It suffices you to describe him as one of

The house that brought us the obligation and morals

خدنُ المعالي رفيعُ القدرِ من خضعت

لعزِّهِ عُظماء البدوِ والمُدُنِ

The pillars of greatness, honorable in rank, have submitted

To his might, the notables of Bedouins and cities

يُعدُ من خدمٍ له ابن زائدةٍ

ومن مماليكهِ سيفُ بن ذي يَزَنِ

He counts as his servants the son of Zayed

And of his slaves, Saif bin Zi Yazan

رضاه من نالهُ حفت به نعمٌ

إمدادها لم يزل على مدى الزمَنِ

His approval, whoever attains it, is enveloped in bounty

Its flow has not ceased over time

أبقاه ربيَ في سعدٍ سعادتُهُ

تُنيلُ أوفى الهنا وراحةَ البدَنِ

May my Lord keep him in fortune, his fortune

Attains the most perfect wish and comfort of bodies
