يَمِّم حمى تاج المُلوكِ محمدِ

إن شئت أن تحظى بسعدٍ مُسعدِ

Make for the protected domain of Muhammad, Crown of Kings,

if you wish to attain a blessed good fortune.

شمس الملوكِ بأفق غربٍ نُورُهُ

يهدي الرعية للنجاحِ الأسعدِ

The sun of kings—his light upon a western horizon—

guides his subjects toward the happiest success.

يحمي ذمار المسلمينِ بعدلِهِ

وبسيف حقٍّ كفَّ كف المعتدي

Through his justice he guards the honor of the Muslims,

and with the sword of truth he stayed the aggressor’s hand.

دامت صنائعُهُ الجميلةُ في الورى

أمد المدى إمدادها لم ينفدِ

May his gracious benefactions endure among humankind

for time’s full span; their outpouring never runs dry.

وتراكمت أمواجُ بحرِ نواله

ومعينها مُستعذبٌ للوردِ

The waves of the sea of his bounty have swelled high,

and its wellspring is sweet to those who come to drink.

صافي المشارب كوثريٌ طعمُهُ

في وردِه نيلُ المُنى والمقصدِ

Its draughts are pure, their taste like Kawthar;

to drink from it is to attain desire and goal.

فاضت علينا من زُلالِ معينهِ

نعمٌ لها شكري بيومي والغدِ

Upon us have overflowed, from the clear water of its spring,

blessings for which I give thanks today and tomorrow.

أعظم بها نعماً إذا ما شئتها

يمِّم حمى تاج الملوك محمّد

How magnificent those blessings—if you wish for them,

make for the protected domain of Muhammad, Crown of Kings.
