حازَ مولاي خِصالاً
دُونَها كُلُّ الخِصالِ
My master has rare virtues
Beyond any virtues found
ضَنَّ بِالمال سِواهُ
وَحَبا قَبلَ السُؤال
He gives freely of his wealth
And loves to give before being asked
رَأَيُه رَأيٌ سَديدٌ
وَلَهُ خَيرُ الفِعال
His view is most sincere
And his actions most ideal
تاجه العز وَحَسبي
أَنهُ رَبُّ المَعالي
His crown is honor and pride
That he's the Lord Most High
حكمه بِالحَق أَمضى
مِن عَوالٍ وَنصال
His rule with truth enforced
Prevails o'er all with might
سَهمه أَعظَم سَهمٍ
زائد الإِقبال عالي
His arrow the greatest shot
With fortune's wind in flight
يا بَني الآمال فُوزوا
مِن يَديه بِالنَوال
O children of high hopes prevail
And gifts from his hand attain
نَفعه عَم البَرايا
مِن عَبيد وَمَوالي
His grace fills all the land
Both servants and allies
أَمره السامي مُطاع
نافذ في كُل حال
His lofty order obeyed
Rules mightily overall
فَضله أَشهر مِن شم
س الضُحى قَبل الزَوال
His merit brighter than the sun
Before the noon does fall
نَفسه أَشرَف نَفس
زانَها حُسنُ الكَمال
His soul the noblest soul
Adorned in virtues full
دَأبه المَأثور عَنهُ
دائِماً صدقُ المَقال
His wonted way well known
Always speaking true
يَرتَوي الظمآن مِنهُ
بِسَحابٍ مِن نَوال
The thirsty from him drink
As clouds rain gifts anew
