هناءٌ سواءٌ كلّنا في سرورهِ
جَلا ظُلم الأكدار إشراق نورهِ
Joy for us all in his bliss
The gloom of sorrows has cleared, his light shines
رَأت كلُّ عينٍ منه أعظم قرّةٍ
وكلُّ فؤادٍ نالَ أقصى حبورهِ
Every eye has seen in him the greatest delight
And every heart has attained his utmost passion
لك اللّه ما أَسنى وأيمن طالعاً
بِه زُرت مِن مغناكَ أعلى قصورهِ
For you, O God, what excellent and auspicious stars
With them you have visited, to his loftiest castles
لَقد هشّ حتّى كادّ لو كان ناطقاً
تُحيّيكَ بالبُغيا جميع وكورهِ
Truly it has rejoiced, as if it could speak
It would congratulate you in all its corners
كأنّ اللّيالي أنشدتهُ بعاطلٍ
لِعقدٍ وحالٍ قد زَها في نحورهِ
As if the nights recited to it, leisurely
For a string of pearls, adorned at its throat
أَميري بأحدٍ مَع ثمانٍ وأربعٍ
لِثاني الربيعين هناءٌ لدورهِ
My prince on the twenty-eighth
Of the second spring, joy for its return
فَلا زالَ مِنكم بَيننا الدهر آهلا
وَمن شَمسِكم يمتدُّ نور بدورهِ
So between us they never cease to be populated
And from your sun its light extends in its turn
وَلا زالتِ الأيّام فيه مواسماً
تجدّدُ في أعوامه وشهورهِ
And the days in it are seasons
Renewed in its years and months
وَدُم آمناً فيه معافى مهنّأ
هناءٌ سواءٌ كلّنا في سرورهِ
And blood secure in it, healthy and fortunate
Joy for us all in his bliss
