إِنّ المَعالِيَ لا حُرِمتَ حُلولَها

بُرجٌ بِسَعدِكَ إِذ حللتَ تَشرّفا

The heights were not denied your blessed arrival

A tower with your fortune when you came to be honored

خَدمَتكَ يا شِبلَ الأماجِد فَاِكتَسَتْ

مِنكَ المَحاسنَ والمفاخرَ والصّفا

Serving you, O lion of glories, it drew from you

Beauty, pride, and purity

وَبِكَ اِستَوت مِن فَوقِ عَرشِ سِيادَةٍ

فَوقَ المَجرَّةِ قَد أَطلَّ وَأَشرَفا

And through you it rose above the throne of leadership

Above the galaxy, rising and overlooking

صافَتكَ وُدّاً وَاِصطَفَتكَ لِنَفسِها

حتّى رَأَيتُكَ لِلمَعالي مُصطفى

It chose you out of love and selected you for itself

Until I saw you as the chosen one of the heights
