جَلَبَ المَاءَ زُلاَلاً يَنْهَمِرْ
بَايُنَا البَاشَا عَلِيُّ المُدَّكِرْ
He brought cool, cascading water
Our Pasha Ali, the thoughtful one
نَجْلُ مَولاَنَا حُسَيِنِ المُرتَضى
يَا لَهُ من بَايِ عَدْلِ مُعْتَبرْ
Grandson of our Master Hussein the Chosen
What a just and principled Pasha he is
مَا سَهَا عَنْ رَبِّهِ فِي مُلكِهِ
فَهْوَ لِلرِّضْوَانِ مِنْهُ المُنتَظِرْ
He does not neglect his Lord in his kingdom
Seeking only His approval
فِي رِضَا مَوْلاَهُ يَسْعَى دَائِماً
وَعَلَى فِعلِ بُرُورٍ مُستَمِرْ
Always striving for his Master's contentment
And continuous acts of kindness
دَامَ فِي المُلكِ عَلَى عِزٍّ لَهُ
بَعدَهُ الفِردَوسُ فيهِ يَستَقِرْ
May his rule last, honored
Followed by Paradise where he settles
مَا ارْتَوَى مَنْ قَالَ فِي تارِيخِهِ
جَاءَ عَذْباً وَزُلاَلاً منْهَمِرْ
None who wrote in his chronicle
Of the sweet, pouring water he brought
