إِن شَهرَ الصِيام شَهرٌ حَميدُ

وَبِهِ طالعُ الأَمير سَعيدُ

In it the fortune of the noble prince is happy

حَيث فيهِ لرابع بَعد عَشر

نالَ بِالأَمر ما يَشا وَيُريد

In its fourteenth after ten

He attained what he desires and wants

وَتَرقَّى في مَصر وَهُوَ جَدير

بِالتَرقي طَريفُه وَتَليد

Of promotion, his manners and tradition are elegant

وَلِمَجدي قالَت مَعاليه أَرخ

لِلتَرقي مَحمود باشا عَميد

And for his glory, his Excellency proclaimed

The promotion of Mahmoud Pasha the dean
