لأكرمُ من عيدٍ يروح ويغتدي

كريمٌ به أهل المكارم تقتدي

More generous than any fleeting holiday

Is the noble one whose nobility we emulate

يساوي عبادَ اللَه في ظل عدله

فكلٌّ له عيدٌ بنعماه سرمدي

Equalizing God's servants in the shade of His justice

For each has an eternal holiday in His blessings

هو السيد ابن العظم رئبال قومه

محمد حمدي المقتفي عدل أحمد

He is the master, son of the great, protector of his people

Muhammad Hamdi, the just, follower of the justice of Ahmad

أميرٌ نداه العذب كالنيل قاطرٌ

على القادر الريان والعاجز الصدي

A prince whose sweet speech flows like the Nile

Upon al-Qadir, the giver of rain and the helpless needy

تباهت به الأعياد إذ صار عيدها

وأهدت له التمداح من كل منشد

The holidays boast through him, for his holiday became theirs

And praise poems were gifted to him from every poet

فلا زلت يا مولاي عيداً معظماً

لنا ولعيد النحر في كل مشهد

So you remain, my master, a glorious holiday

For us and for Eid al-Adha wherever we are

تقول لنفس تبغض الشر أرخي

فحبك فعل الخير عيد محمد

Say to your soul which hates evil, be at ease

For your love of good is the holiday of Muhammad
