أمغازلي بالطرف مرهف
ومقابلي بالقدّ أهيف
My eyes flirt with him, so delicate and refined
And he returns my glances with his slender, willowy frame
لي من جفونك والقوا
م السيف والرمح المثقف
His eyelashes pierce me like swords and sharpened spears
While the braided belt wraps snug around his slim waist
ومهفهفٌ عقد النطاق
على قضيب نقاً مهفهف
His supple quiver bounces lightly as he walks
Bearing the weight of his heavy tail with ease and grace
مجدول مستنّ الوشاح
قصيف معتدل المقصف
He increases my burden with his narrow hips
Fluid in motion, his curled forelock dancing as he prances
ومرجرج الردف الثقيل
خفيف طي الكشح مخطف
With soothing conversation, though reserved and shy
His neck arched as he nudges gently with his graceful legs
قد زادني كلفاً به
خصرٌ بدعص نقاً تكلف
His alluring glances have ensnared me
With modest gazes, lowered yet so meaningful
سمح السوالف عاقص
من مرسل الجعد المعكف
His beauty brands my heart like a fiery seal
As if stamped by a craftsman pressing precious coins
واختال يطعن قدّه
بمقدم الخيلين بالصف
A lazy horse lagging behind the lead
Dragging his feet, reluctant in the race
خالسته النظر المريب
بفاسق النظر المعفف
Plodding heavily over rugged terrain
Squinting through the dark veil of night
بالنار يطبع وجنةً
فكأنما دينار صيرف
Give me your radiance, bright as stars that shine
Rise my love, and greet me with your glowing light
كسلان يرفع رفرفا
عن سابقه ويجرُّ رفرف
For you my heart has melted, seeping from each pore
And mingled with the tears that I can no longer keep inside
امدعدع الطَّاسات في
غلس وجفن الليل اوطف
You who has been granted such nobility and grace
Not grasping nor presumptuous, but with humility
من لي بريقك قرقفاً
قم عاطني بالريق قرقف
Oh son of highborn lineage, your perfume is intoxicating
Your critics stand no chance to build their feeble case
بك قد اذبت حشاشة
نزفت مع الدمع المكفكف
Glory clings to you, generosity is your mark
Wisdom, sincerity, and counsel you impart
ومؤلف للفضل ما
قد شدّ منه وما تألف
In you I glimpse the finest qualities
Were it not for such refinement, I would say divine
يا ابن الغطارف افرخت
ضرم الشذا بازاً تغطرف
As for the Sacred House and crowds who've come to worship there
None more deserving to circle round that noble shrine
والضاربين بكل ممتنع ال
ذرى بيتا مسجَّف
In pilgrim garb they humbly walk, fulfilling their Hajj rites
Raising their voices in exaltation at that holy site
المجد اتلع والمكارمُ
سمحة والرأي محصف
Glorious is the knowledge you have gained and now possess
Fearsome, momentous, an honor you've been blessed
تصبيك منك شمائلٌ
لولا الفخامة قلت اهيف
To lead all those who've stood at Arafat's rocky height
And those who've prayed and reflected through the long day's light
واما وبيت اللَه والنفر
الأولى بالبيت طوَّف
As well as those who've purified themselves from sin
Walking the paths between Safa and Marwah's hills
وبمحرمين تجلببوا
بمجلل الريط الملفف
And those whose Hajj is now complete, their duties done
You are foremost among the honorable ones
وعجيج اصوات الحجيج
ومن به لبى وعرّف
Oh you who holds the highest aspirations dear
Devout in faith, though tolerant and not austere
وعظيم ما ضمَّ المعرف
والمحصب والمخيف
Your pen flows like a stream, so elegant and bright
Inscribed with artistry upon each page you write
والمشعرين ومن تلبث
يومه والعيس وقَّف
Pure of conscience, brimming with eloquent speech
Culled like ripe fruit from branches just beyond your reach
والمروتين وما صفا
بين الصفا والخيف اوشف
Unblemished by the dust of doubt, you've cast off shame
Wresting the false perceptions that obscure your name
والآيبين ليكملوا
فرضا لحجهم الموَّقف
You double each gift, and multiply every sum
That you extend to those who seek your favor
انت المقدَّم في العلى
لا من تقدَّم او تخلف
You spur your steeds like eagles in swift flight
As if nothing can stop you from attaining your height
يا محرزاً قصب العوالي
الصم بالقصب المجوف
No fault lies in your munificence, though some deride
That without restraint you spread your arms open wide
قلمٌ بريق رضابه
علقاً على الورق المزخرف
For those who give plenty and take little in return
You make no complaint of blessings that you've earned
خالي الضمائر ممتلٍ
من يانع الكلم المقطَّف
Wherever you turn your steps will follow suit
Pause or proceed, your will shall bear the fruit
عريان من دنس تجرَّد
نازع الشبهات مترف
Greetings to you, a sun but newly risen in the morn
Whose radiance reveals the guiding light we've sworn
امثنِّي المأة الثنى
ومضاعف الألف المضعف
A sun whose veil is lifted to unveil her face
Putting the stars and moon to shame with her grace
والباعث الخيل العتاق
كأنها العقبان خطَّف
She rises to the zenith, where you reign supreme
Dragging the train of your gown as you fulfill your dream
يا مسرفاً ما ضرّه
ان قيل لولا النص اسرف
Once hidden, when she appears in darkest night
All stars and meteors sparkle in her light
ما ضرَّ باسط راحة
تركت وعور الجود صفصف
So let all rejoice in the noble prince we adore
And celebrate with joy his virtue evermore
يعطي الكثيى وبعضهم
مسترجع ما قلَّ بالكف
ان سرت سار ميّمما
قصداً وان وَّقفت وقف
حيَّتك شمس تحجُّب
زفت لبدر هدىً تكشف
شمسٌ بكسر حجابها
ان قابلتها الشمس تكسف
وافت لمطَّرف العلى
غراً تجرُّ ذيول مطرف
محجوبة فاذا بدت
ليلاً لطرف النجم يطرف
فلتهنئن بفتى العليّ
وليهنئنَّ بها ويسعف
