ختانٌ بالمسرّة دام عزّه
وراح لكلّ حلم يستفزّه
A circumcision in joy remains his might
And he went to provoke every dream
بأنجال المليك عليّ باي
على ثوب الممالك زان طرزه
With the nails of King Ali Bey
On the dress of kingdoms decorated his embroidery
مليكٌ لم يرمُ ملكٌ يُحاكي
أقلّ علاه إلا بان عجزُه
A king who did not throw a resembling kingdom
At least it showed his incapacity
فكنزُ النّاس من ذهب لذُخر
ومن خير الدُّعا والمدح كنزُه
So people's treasure of gold to hoard
And the best supplication and praise his treasure
ففي الأخرى الدُّعاءُ يقيه نارا
وفي الدُّنيا من الافات حرزُهُ
So in the end supplication protects him from fire
And in the present from afflictions his amulet
فيا لله من ختن كريم
أزال حزازة الأحشاء حزُّهُ
What a noble circumcision
That removed the thorns from the intestines thorn
تتبّع سُنّة المختار فيه
ولم يعدل إلى ما شاع نبزُه
Following the tradition of the Chosen One in it
And he did not turn to what spread his criticism
وأتبعهُ بختن بني البرايا
وأطلق من ببطن السّجن حجزُه
And followed it the circumcision of the sons of the lands
And released from the belly of prison his detention
لقد عظم السُّرور بنا فكلٌّ
كغصن والسُّرُورُ هوا يهزُّه
Indeed, joy has increased in us so each
Like a branch, and joy is what shakes it
ودام ختانُكم بالعزّ يأتي
بتاريخ ختانٌ دام عزُّه
And may your circumcision remain with might comes
With the date a circumcision of lasting might
