لِتُهْنَ شَهْرَ العِيدِ يَا مَالِكا
بِبَابِهِ صِيدُ العُلَى أعْبُدُ
May you rejoice in the month of Eid, O King,
at whose gate the proud lords of glory are humblest.
هِلاَلُهُ الزَّاهِي حَنَى ظَهْرَهُ
كَيْمَا يُهَنِّيكَ بِمَا يُسْعِدُ
Its radiant crescent has bowed its back
so that it may congratulate you with all that brings joy.
كَأنَّهُ فِي أفْقِهِ مِنْجَلٌ
لِزَرْعِ أعْمَارِ العِدَى يَحْصُدُ
As though, upon its horizon, it were a sickle,
reaping the crop of the foes’ lifespans.
Sol 5.6
