إِن شِئتَ أَن تَخبُرُ ما عِندي

فَأَسعَدُ الناسَ أَبو سَعدِ

If you wish to know what I have

Then the happiest of men is Abu Sa‘d

مُهَذَّبٌ أَورَقَ عودُ العُلا

بِهِ وَريضَت رَوضَةُ المَجدِ

Refined is the slender branch of glory

Through him the garden of glory flourished

إِذا جَلَت أَلسُنُنا ذِكرُهُ

جَلَتهُ في خَليٍ مِنَ الحَمدِ

When our tongues move to praise him

They move in a stream of praise
