يا لَحدَ شَمسِ العُلى فيها بِنورِ رِضا

رَبّي الرّحيمُ وَمَولاي الكَريم أَضا

O Lahad, in it is the light of the Most High's pleasure

My Lord the Merciful and my Master the Generous have consented

صِرتَ الثريّا لِبدرِ المَجدِ مَنزلةً

فَحَلَّها إِذ لأمرِ اللَّهِ قَد نَهَضا

You became the wealth for the full moon of glory

So it rose when the command of God had stood up

بَدر الوِزارَةِ مَن طابَت سَريرتهُ

مَع حُسنِ سيرَتِهِ فيما اِنقَضى وَمَضى

The full moon of ministry, whose inner self was good

With the beauty of his past conduct that has passed and gone

وَالحُكمُ للَّهِ مَولانا وَخالِقنا

قَضى بِأَنّ سُليمان الزّمان قَضى

And the judgment is for our Lord and Creator

He decreed that Suleiman of the time has passed away

دَعاهُ مَولاهُ لِلفِردَوسِ يَسكُنُها

فَراحَ يَرضى بها عَن دارِه عِوَضا

His Master called him to Paradise to dwell in it

So he was happy with it instead of his house

وَمُذ دَعاهُ لَها فَضلاً بِرَحمَتِهِ

وَأرّخوه بِها قَد عمّه وَرضا

And since He called him to it out of His bounty

They recorded him in it, it has covered him and pleased him

عَليهِ رِضوانه لا زالَ منهَمِلاً

وَلَم تَزل لِلرِّضا يا لَحدَه غَرضا

Upon him is His good pleasure, it does not cease to incline toward him

And to consent, O Lahad, has always been its aim
