يا بُغيةَ الملكِ للأَوطان آمالُ

نجازُها تَقتضيه مِنكَ أَحوالُ

O seeker of the kingdom's good for homelands, hopes

Whose fulfillment your condition necessitates

قَد سرّها ذكر إبراهيم خَير أَبٍ

ذلَّت لِعزَّته في الحَرب أَبطال

His mention brought her joy, Ibrahim the best father

For his dignity heroes bowed in war

كَم في المآثر مِن جدّ وَمنقبة

لَم يُحصِها قَبلَهُ في الكَون أَقيال

How many glories and virtues

Not tallied by anyone before in the universe

فَأَنتَ أَعظَم صَدر مِنكَ قَد حسنت

في النهي وَالأَمر أَقوالٌ وَأَفعال

You are the greatest in chest from whom goodness came

In forbidding and commanding, words and deeds

وَهَذِهِ مَصرك الغرّا قَد اِبتَهَجَت

برفعة قَد علاها مِنكَ إِفضال

And here is your Egypt delighted

By the loftiness with which you blessed it

وَالآن أَعلامها المَطوية اِنتَشَرَت

مِنها عَلى هامة الجَوزاء أَشكال

And now its furled banners unfurled

On the brows of Leo figures

وَكَيفَ لا وَهيَ قَد عزت وَطابَ لَها

مِنكَ التَهاني وَعَنها غابَ إِذلال

Why not when it gained might and was sweetened for it

From you congratulations and humiliation left it

وَالدَولة اِرتَفَعَت أَركانُها وَسَمَت

وَلاحَ حالاً عَلَيها مِنكَ إِجلال

And the state, its pillars rose high aiming

And for it your esteem shone a condition

وَقَد عَلَت بِكَ وَاِزدادَت مَحاسنها

يَوم الوِلاية آثارٌ وَأَطلال

And with you it increased in beauty

On the day of assumption traces and ruins

فَاِنهَض إِلى مسند عال دَعاك لَهُ

فَضلٌ بِهِ ضُرِبت لِلناس أَمثال

So rise to the lofty position called you to it

Grace with which examples were given to people

وَالعَدل مَعْك رَبي في المَهد وَاِعتَرَفَت

بِهِ لعلياك أَملاكٌ وَعُمّال

And justice my Lord in the cradle and it acknowledged

To your ascendance kingdoms and workers

وَأَنتَ نِعم النصير اِبنُ النَصير وَمن

بحزمه اِندَفَعَت عَن مَصر أَهوال

And you are the best victorious son of the victorious and he who

With his resolve Egypt's horrors evaded

وَمَن عَلَيهِ الرَعايا عوّلت وَمَضى

عَن القُلوب بِهِ رَوعٌ وَأَوجال

And he on whom the subjects depended and passed

From hearts alarm and fears

وَالملك وَالدين وَالتمدين أَنتَ لِما

تَسمو بِهِ يا أَثيل المَجد فَعّال

And you are for what you aspire with, O peerless in glory

The kingdom, religion and civilization a doer

فَاقبل هدية مَملوكٍ مَدائحُه

يا أَوحَد الدَهر لِلتحقيق تمثال

So accept the gift of a slave whose praises

O unique one of the times for realization a statue

فَأَنتَ أَولى بِأَمر لا يَقوم بِهِ

سِواك في هَذِهِ الأَوطان رئبال

For you are worthier of a matter none other than you

In these homelands, a chief, can manage

لا زلت فيها بِما أُوتيت مُبتهجاً

وَمِنكَ أَيدها بِالنَصر أَشبال

I have not ceased delighted in it with what I was given

And from you its cubs assist it with victory

أَو المَعالي بِها قالت مؤرخة

لِمصر بِالليث إِسماعيل إِقبال

Or glories with which history said to Egypt

With the lion, Ismail good fortunes
