غَدا الدّينُ بِاِسمِكَ سامي العَلَم

أَمينَ العِمادِ مَكينَ القَدَمْ

Tomorrow, in your name, the faith became lofty

The pillar of support, firm of step

لِذلِكَ لُقِّبت نوراً لَهُ

وَقَد أَغطَشَ الظُّلْمُ فيهِ الظُّلَم

For that you were titled "Light for it"

And darkness had covered it, so it was pitch black

أَضاءَت بِعَدلِكَ آفاقُهُ

وَفُضَّت عُرَى الدِّينِ لَمّا اِدْلَهَم

Your justice illuminated its horizons

And the bonds of religion were loosened when it was ignited

وَلَو لَم تَمشِ رَهواً لِنَصْرِ الرُّها

وَمِثلُكَ أَدرَكَ لَمّا عَزَم

And if you had not walked hastily to champion the bewildered

And the likes of you would not have succeeded if he intended

وَيَومٍ بِسوطا بَسَطتَ الحمام

عَلى الهَضبِ مِن رُكْنِها فَاِنْهَدَم

And one day at Sowcca you unfolded your doves

On the ridge from its corner so it collapsed

وبُصْرَى وَصَرْخَدَ لَو لَم تَثُر

دِراكاً لَكَانا ردِيفَيْ إِرَم

And Bosra and Sergiopolis, if you had not rebelled

Would have been next to Iram

ومُذْ فضَّ جَيشُكَ في الغوطَتَيْ

نِ فضَّ الصّليبُ لَهُ ما نَظَم

And since your army raided the Ghotatain

The cross unto it has not composed poems

وَفي كَفرِلاثا وَهاب حَلَلْ

تَ عُقَدَ البرنِس بِبيضٍ خِذَم

And at Kafr Latha you permitted

The untying of the pronce's knots with white hands

مُعَوَّدةً أَنَّها لا تُسَل

لُ إِلّا مُقَمقمةً لِلقِمَم

Who is accustomed that she is not submitted

Unless forcibly to the summits

وَيَومَ بَسَرْفُود جَرَّعْتَهُم

أُجاجاً أَغَصَّهمُ وَاِصْطَلَم

And the day of Baserfon you made them drink

A bitter poison that choked them and were extinguished

وَفَوقَ العُرَيْمَةِ غَشّاهُمُ

عُرامُ جُيوشِكَ سَيلَ العَرِم

And above Uraymah your brave armies covered them

The torrents of your armies, a flood of calamities

وَأَنتَ بِكَلبِهِم في الكبول

مُباح الحَريمِ مُذال الحُرَم

And you in their doghouse with the perversions

Violator of sanctuaries, disgracer of holy sites

وَبارَتُهُم أَذَّنَت أَنَّها

أَبارَتهُمُ فَليَبوؤا بِذَم

And their church announced that it

Renounced them, so let them bear with dispraise

بَنَوْها وَأَعلَوْا وَلَم يَعلَموا

بِما خَطَّ في اللَّوحِ مِنكَ القَلَم

They built it and exalted, but did not know

What the pen had transcribed unto the tablet from you

وَأَنَّكَ خارِمٌ ما أَحكَموهُ

وَمِن دِينِنا راقِعٌ ما اِنْخَرَم

And that you will destroy what they strengthened

And elevate what had crumbled from our religion

فَتَرفَعُ مِن بَعدِ خَفضٍ هُدى

وَتَخفِضُ مِن بَعدِ رَفعٍ صَنَم

So guidance is raised after being brought down

And idols are brought down after being raised

سَمَكتَ المَدارِسَ فَوقَ النّجوم

فَكَم منْجمٍ تَحتَها قَد نَجَم

You established schools above the stars

So how many astrologers have appeared underneath them

وَعاشَ الحَنيفِيُّ وَالشافِعِيّ

بِما شِدتَ مِنها وَكانا رِمَم

And the Hanifi and Shafii lived

By what you affirmed from it while they were in disarray

وَإِنْ لَم تَكُن هاشِميَّ الأُصول

فَإنَّكَ فَرعُ الهِزَبْرِ الهِشَم

And if you were not Hashimi in origins

Then you are a branch of the glorious Hesham

وَمَن يَدَّعي في العُلا ما اِدَّعَيت

وَأَنتَ اِبنُ مَن عَزَّ لَمّا اِحتَكَم

And whoever claims in supremacy what you have claimed

While you are the son of one who was mighty when he arbitrated

وَأُقسِمُ ما غابَ سَيفٌ سَقَتْ

مَغارِسَهُ عَين هَذي الشِّيَم

And I swear by that which the sword missed

Its meadows have been watered by the eye of this mark
