أَنشَأتَها بِركَةً مُبارَكَةً

فَبارَكَ اللَهُ في عَواقِبِها

He created it as a blessed blessing

So God blessed its consequences

حُفَّت بِما تَشتَهي النُفوسُ لَها

وَحارَتِ الناسُ في عَجائِبِها

It is adorned with what souls desire of it

And people are amazed at its wonders

لَم يَخلُقِ اللَهُ مِثلَها وَطَناً

في مَشرِقِ الأَرضِ أَو مَغارِبِها

God did not create a homeland like it

In the east or west of the earth

كَأَنَّها وَالرِياضُ مُحدِقَةٌ

بِها عَروسٌ تُجلى لِخاطِبِها

It is as if it and its gardens are staring

At it a bride revealing herself to her suitor

مِن أَيِّ أَقطارِها أَتَيتَ رَأَي

تَ الحُسنَ حَيرانَ في جَوانِبِها

From which of its regions did you come and see

Beauty confused on its sides

لِلمَوجِ فيها تَلاطُمٌ عَجَبٌ

وَالجَزرُ وَالمَدُّ في مَشارِبِها

The waves in it have an amazing surge

And the tides in its waters

قَدَّرَها اللَهُ لِلإِمامِ وَما

قَدَّرَ فيها عَيباً لِعائِبِها

God ordained it for the Imam and ordained

No flaws in it for its critic

أَهدَت إِلَيها الدُنيا مَحاسِنَها

وَأَكمَلَ اللَهُ حُسنَ صاحِبِها

The world gifted its beauties to it

And God perfected the beauty of its dweller
