هَنيئاً لِدارٍ لا تَزال المَواكبُ
لَها بِالمَعالي في التَهاني تُخاطبُ
Congratulations to a house that processions
Still come to it with glories in congratulations addressing
وَكَيفَ وَشاهين العلا في سَمائها
هُوَ المشتري وَالزهر فيها كَواكب
And how when the falcons of glory are in its sky
He is the buyer and the flowers in it are stars
وَإقباله يَزداد فيها وَيَزدهي
وَتَسعى إِلى عَلياه فيها المَراتب
And its prosperity increases in it and becomes more radiant
And to its heights in it the ranks hasten
وَيَملؤها مِنهُ بِأَنجب صَبية
لَهُ مَعَهُم فيها تَطيب المَشارب
And it is filled with the best of boys from him
With them in it the drinks are sweetened
وَمَجدي لَهُ فيها يَقول مؤرخاً
سراية شاهين لَها السَعد طالب
And my glory for it, a historian says
The palace of falcons, for it fortune is seeking
