للعِيدِ في كلِّ عامٍ

يومٌ يُعيدُ سَنَاه

Every year has a day

That makes its years pass by

وأنتَ في كلّ يومٍ

عيدٌ يَلُوحُ عُلاه

Yet you, each day

Have a feast shining high

ونعمةٌ وسُعودٌ

للمُعْتَفين وجَاه

Blessing and joy

To the confessed, glory nigh

يا مَنْ تُصَلِّي المعالي

إليه حين تراه

O you who prayers oft say

To Him when you see His signs

ومن يَبِرُّ اليتامى

من كلّ خَلْقٍ سواه

And you who nurture orphans

Apart from all other kinds

لو كان للفضل يوماً

مُنىً لكنتَ مُناه

If merit had a day

You would be its refuge finds

لأنّ منك استعار الزْ

زَمانُ حُسْنَ حُلاَه

For time borrowed from you

The beauty of its prime

فأنتَ شمسُ ضُحَاه

وأنت بَدْرُ دُجَاه

So you're the sun at dawn

You're the moon at nighttime

كفَّاك في كل سِلْمٍ

سَحابُ صَوْبِ نَداه

You suffice every peace

With clouds responding to your call

وحُسْنُ رأيك في الحر

بِ سيفُه وقَناه

Your wise counsel in confusion

Is a sword and shield for all

فأنت يُمْنَى يديه

وأنت أمضى ظُباه

You're the right hand raised

You're the perfect helper hailed

فاسلَمْ لسعدك يا مَنْ

يُديم نَحْسَ عِدَاه

So submit to your fortune

O you whose luck has prevailed
