1. Time has grown fair, and Egypt here has drunk

    The cup of joys, unveiled by the hand of glad tidings.

  2. And this is longing, urging us toward a king

    Before whose lofty ambitions the greatest affairs are small.

  3. And this is the festival, and good fortune has dated it:

    Tawfiq of Egypt—through him our festivals are grand.
