هنيئاً لمصر حَوز يوسف ملكها

بأمرٍ من الرَّحمنِ قد كان مَوْقوتا

Congratulations to Egypt, Joseph has obtained its kingdom

By a command from the Merciful that was destined

وما كان فيها قتلُ يوسف شاوراً

يماثلُ إلاّ قتل داود جالوتا

And what happened in it, killing Joseph, was not a consultation

It only resembles killing David Goliath

وقلتُ لقلبي أَبشر اليوم بالمُنى

فقد نلتَ ما أَمّلتَ بلْ حزتَ ماشِيتا

And I said to my heart, rejoice today with the wish

For you have obtained what you hoped for, rather, you have taken what you wanted
