عِش لِلعُلا مَولى وَذُخرا
وَاِسطَع بِأُفقِ السَعدِ بَدرا
Live for the Most High as a master and treasure
And shine on the horizon of happiness like a full moon
وَتَحُلُّ أَعيادُ الزَما
نِ بَواسِماً بِحُلاكَ ثَغرا
And the festivals of time smile
With your smiles that make mouths blossom
وَاحكم فحُكمُك في البَرِي
يَةِ نافذٌ نَهياً وَأَمرا
And rule, for your rule in existence
Is effective, a prohibition and command
فَلَقَد مَلأتَ مهابَةً
وَهوىً قُلوبَ الناسِ طُرّا
For you have filled with awe
And passion the hearts of people, flying high
سَمّيتَ باسم محمَّدٍ
فَحُمِدتَ أَفعالا وَذِكرا
Named after the name of Muhammad
So your actions and mention are praised
وَدُعيتَ توفيقا فَكن
تَ بغايَة التَوفيقِ أَحرى
And you are called success, so be
The utmost of success, yes truly
حَلَفَ الزَمانُ بِأَن يُوَف
فِيكَ المُنى فَوَفى وَبَرّا
Time has sworn to fulfill
For you wishes, and it fulfilled and acted honestly
وَغَدا يَسوقُ لك السرو
رَ وَحظُّه في أَن تُسَرّا
And tomorrow it leads for you ease
And its luck is in making you happy
هذا جُلوسُك عيدهُ
مَلأَ المَلا بِشرا وَبُشرى
This is your sitting, its celebration
Filled the high assembly with good news and glad tidings
يومٌ بِطابَعِ يُمنهِ
وجهُ الزمان غدا أَغرّا
A day with the stamp of its prosperity
The face of time tomorrow becomes lighter
أَلبَستَه مِنَناً تَهُز
زُ معاطِفَ الأَيّام كِبرا
You clothed it with favors that
Shake the cloaks of days violently
وَإِبابُ عبّاسٍ كسا
هُ جلابِباً لِلحُسن أَخرى
And Abbas's inspiration dressed
It in other fine robes of beauty
حَنَّت إِلَيهِ تَشَوُّقا
مصرٌ فعاد يَؤُمّ مِصرا
Egypt longed for it yearningly
So it came to settle in Egypt
من بعد ما طافَ المَما
لكَ عابِراً بَرّا وَبَحرا
After it circled the realms
Traveling by land and sea
وَأَرى المَغارِبَ طَلعةً
يُتلى الكمالُ بها وَيُقرا
And I see the West as a rising
Where perfection is recited and settled
وَمَكارما منك اِستَمَدَّ
جَمالها غَضّا وَنَضرا
And noble deeds it derived
From you, fresh and blossoming
وَمَطارفا لِلفَضلِ أَن
تَ بِلُبسها في الكَون أَدرى
And horizons for virtue for you
To don in the universe, more knowing
وَمخايلا من والدٍ
فوق النجوم الشُهبِ قَدرا
And inclinations from a father
Above the stars' orbits, determining fate
قد صَيَّرت كلَّ الجَوا
رحِ وَالقلوبِ لدَيه أَسرى
You have taken prisoner all the minds
And hearts beside it
فَاِهنَأ به وَبِصِنوِهِ
إِذ أَشبَهاكَ علاً وَفَخرا
So congratulate yourself and your making
For they resemble you in height and pride
فَبِفَضلِ ذا وَبِمِثلِ ذا
حقٌّ لِعَينِك أَن تَقَرّا
For by the merit of this and the like of this
Is your eye right to settle
