العيدُ عاد بِما تَشاء بَشيرا

وَالسَعدُ ظَلَّ له عُلاكَ سَميرا

The feast has returned with whatever you wish, harbinger

And happiness remained for you, lofty summit

وَالدينُ وَالدُنيا يَتيه كِلاهُما

طولَ المَدى بك عِزَّةً وَسُرورا

Religion and life are both lost

With you for long glory and delight

أَعزَزتَ شَأنَ رَعِيَّةٍ بك فاخَرَت

أُمَماً وَكنتَ لها أَباً وَأَميرا

You have honored the status of a people proud of you

Nations for which you were a father and prince

وَشَعائِرُ الشَهرِ الكريمِ أَقَمتَها

حَتّى تَوَلّى عن حِماكَ قَريرا

And the rituals of the generous month you upheld

Until the heat turned away from your protection cool

لا زلتَ تُسدي لِلمَواسِم بهجَةً

وَلِمُلكِ مصرَ نَضارَةً وَحُبورا

You still bestow on the seasons radiance

And on Egypt’s realm freshness and prosperity

وَتُذَلِّل الصَعبَ الخطيرَ بهمَّةٍ

تَدَع الجَليلَ من الأُمورِ يَسيرا

And you facilitate the difficult and dangerous with determination

Leaving the momentous affairs easy

وَتَرى بَنيكَ الأَكرَمينَ جَميعَهم

بِسماء مجدِك أَنجُما وَبُدورا

And you see all your noble children

As stars and full moons in the sky of your glory

بشراك فَالإِقبال قال مؤرِّخا

تَوفيقُ عيدُ الفِطر جاء مُنيرا

Good news—the fortune-teller said the Feast of Fast-Breaking has come

The auspiciousness of your feast arrived shining
