بَدا كَوكَب الأَفراح طالعُهُ السَعدُ

فَأَشرَق في أُفق التَهاني بِهِ المَجدُ

The star of joy has risen, good fortune is its ascendant

It shines radiantly on the horizon of congratulations, glory lies therein

وَنادى بَشير الأُنس في لَيلَة الصَفا

لَقَد فازَ إِبراهيم وَاِنتَجز الوَعد

The harbinger of intimacy cried out on a clear night

Indeed Ibrahim won and the promise was fulfilled

وَنالَ مِن الأَيام ما كانَ يَرتجي

بِمَصر وَفي الإِقبال أَسعده الجَد

And he obtained from the days what he aspired to

In Egypt, and good fortune made his future brighter

وَأَدرَك شَمس الحُسن في العز فازدَهت

بِهِ وَهوَ بَدر في مَحاسنه فرد

And he attained the sun of beauty in glory and it shone more radiantly

Through him, for he is a full moon in his handsome features

فَقُلت أَهنِّي بِالزَفاف مُؤرخاً

بَنى الشَهمُ إِبراهيمُ بِالشَمس يا سَعد

So I said, I congratulate the wedding, chronicling it

The valiant Ibrahim constructed with the sun, O happy one
