حُلِيّ الملوك وتيجانُها
وبيتُ المعالي وايوانُها
The ornaments of kings and their crowns,
The crowns of kings and their diadems,
and the house of lofty honors and their hall,
The houses of grandeur and their porticos,
وبأس الكُماة وإقدامها
وحُلم الكفاة وإحسانها
and the valor of champions and their daring,
The valor of warriors and their bravery,
and the forbearance of capable men and their beneficence—
The wisdom of sages and their kindness,
توارثنها الأزدُ حتى انتهت
إلى أن حوى الإِرثَ نَبهانُها
the Azd inherited them in succession, until they passed
Were inherited by Azd until they ended up
to their Nabhan, who possessed the inheritance:
With Nabhan who embraced their legacy,
أمير العتيك تسامى به
كهُول العَتيك وشبَّانها
the prince of al-Atik, through whom rose high
The chief of Atiq rose high with it
the mature men of al-Atik and its young men.
As well as the elders and youth of Atiq,
أنبهان إِنك من عصبةٍ
نماها إلى المجد قحطانُها
O Nabhan, you are indeed of a clan
O Nabhan you are from a tribe
whose Qahtan raised it to glory.
That glory nurtured, Qahtan's progeny,
همُ العين في يعرب كلّها
وأنت من العَين إنسانها
They are the eye of all Ya'rub,
You care for all the Arabs
and you are the pupil of that eye.
And you are the most noble of them,
إذا طلبت مكرمات العُلى
بدا في جبينك عُنوانها
When the noble deeds of lofty glory are sought,
If you seek the honors of sublime ranks
their sign appears upon your brow.
It shows on your forehead their signs,
وأنت إذا صَعبت حاجةٌ
أتى من بيمينك إمكانُها
And as for you, whenever a need proves difficult,
And when a difficult need arises
its fulfillment comes from your right hand.
Its means comes from your right hand,
فعشت وبُلّغتَ من سيّدٍ
مناكَ وسرَّكَ لُقيانها
So may you live and, lord that you are, be granted
So you lived and conveyed from a master
your wishes, and may their attainment delight you.
Who destined you, met and knew you,
ولا زال يغدوك في نعمةٍ
شباب الحيَاة ورَيعانُها
And may you always be visited each morning, in well-being,
He still comes to you in bounty
by life's youth and its prime.
The prime of life and its pleasures.
