لَكَ البُشرى فَهَذا عيد أَضحى

غَدا بِكَ في جَبين الدَهر صُبحا

You have good tidings, for this is Eid al-Adha

Tomorrow it brings in the forehead of time a dawn

فَعلمنا الهَنا كَيفَ التَهاني

وَقَرّر مِن بَشائرنا الأَصحَّا

So it taught us congratulations

And it confirmed from our good news the most correct

وَأَطلَق بِالثَنا مِنا لِساناً

يَقيّد في حلى النَعماء مَدحا

And it released with praise from us a tongue

That binds in the necklaces of favors praise

فَيا جُند السَعيد بَلغت مَجداً

فَزد فيما دعيت إِلَيهِ نصحا

So O army of the fortunate you have reached glory

So increase in what you were called to advise

وَنافس في مَعالي خَير صَدر

بِقطر في مَكان العز أَضحى

And compete in the high virtues of a generous chest

With drops in the place of dignity Eid appeared

وَكَيفَ وَثَغرُهُ أَبدى اِبتِساماً

بِهِ عَين الحَسود تَبيت قَرحى

And how, while its smile showed permanent

By it the eye of the envious spends the night wounded

وَحدّث بِالحسام عَلى جِياد

عَن المرّان فَهوَ لَديك صَحّا

And talk about the swords on the steeds

About training, so it is to you right

وَقف تَحتَ البُنود لنحر خصم

وَمكِّن في العِدا سَيفاً وَرُمحا

And stand under the terms to slaughter a rival

And enable in the enemies a sword and a spear

وَدَع عَنكَ التَوحُّش وَالتَواني

إِلى شيم غَدَت بِالبر سَمحا

And leave behind you estrangement and slowness

To traits that have become with righteousness clement

فَذي أَوطاننا وَلنا علاها

وَفيها عزنا يَزداد ربحا

So the one whose homelands are ours and we excel them

And in them our dignity increasingly profits

بِدَولة أَوحدٍ صَدر سَعيد

بِهِ غَيث العُلوم بِمصر سَحّا

With the state of the unique, happy chest

With it, the rain of sciences in Egypt poured

أَلَيسَ بِعَدله سَعدت وَأَضحت

بِأَوج تمدّنٍ تَختال فَرحى

Is it not by his justice you became happy and shone

Strutting with the highest civilization delighted

يُغرّد مَجدُها أَبَداً يؤرخ

كَما سعد السَعيد بِعيد أَضحى

Its glory chirping forever dating

As the happy one was felicitous with Eid al-Adha
