هَذا سَبِيلٌ فِي سَبِيلِ مُهَيمَنٍ

أجرَاهُ مَنْ أولَى الجَمَالَ جَمِيلهُ

This is a path in the path of the Protector

Constructed by the one who endowed beauty its beauty

فَاشْرَبْ وَقِفْ بإزَائهِ مُتَنَعِّماً

فَالسعدُ عَبْدٌ وَالنسِيمُ خَلِيلُهُ

So drink and stand facing it enjoying yourself

For Sa'd is a servant and the breeze is his friend

يُحْيِي وَيُشْفِي مَاؤُهُ وَنَسِيمُه

حَازَ المَحَاسنَ أينَ أينَ مَثِيلُهُ

Its water and breeze revive and heal

It has attained perfections, where, where is its equal?

فَلِقُطرِ مِصْرَ الفَخْرُ كَانَ بِنِيلِهِ

حتى صَفَا هَذا تَغَيرَ نيلُهُ

For Egypt was pride through its Nile

Until this one purified, its Nile changed

وَغَذَا الفُرَاتُ يَقُولُ إنِّي أنَا كَمَنْ

حَاوِي العُلاَ البَاشَا عَلِيُّ كَفيلُهُ

And the Euphrates says, "I am like the one

Who contains nobility, Pasha Ali is its guarantor"

يَا ذَا الذِي يَشكُو الغَلِيلَ وَحَرَّه

فَهْوَ الدَّوَا لِحَشَى كَوَاهُ غَليلُهُ

O you who complain of anguish and heat

It is the remedy for guts burned, its anguish

رِدْ فَاغتَرِفْ مَاء قَرَاحاً طَيِّباً

يُطفِي اللَّهِيبَ دَقِيقَهُ وَجَلِيلَهُ

Go back and draw good, pure water

That extinguishes the blaze, little and great

مَلِكُ المُلُوكِ ذَوي المَعَالِي نَفْعهُ

فِي الأرضِ جَالَ مَدِيدُهُ وطَويلُهُ

The King of Kings whose benefit

On earth is long and extended

أبدَى الهُدى فَأفَادَ كُلَّ كَرِيمَةٍ

وَأبانَ نَفعاً لاَ الزَّمَانُ يُزِيلُهُ

He showed guidance so benefitted every generous one

And made clear a benefit time will not remove

فَسَبِيلُهُ عَذبٌ لِذا أرَّختُهُ

مُبدِي الهُدَى كَالسلْسَبِيلِ سَبِيلُهُ

So his path is freshwater, so I dated it

Revealer of guidance, like a sabīl his path
