كذا أبداً نلتقي كلّ عيد

بسعد جديد وجد سعيد

Thus we always meet, every Eid

With new happiness and happy quests

لك الله من وافر بحرُه

بفضل بسيطٍ وظلٍّ مديد

May God grant you abundant generosity

With simple grace and lasting shade

وخير عمادٍ أعادت علاه

وأعلت قواعد بيتٍ مشيد

And the best pillar that raised its glory

And established the foundations of a splendid house

لو أنَّ بيوت العلى نظمت

لأصبحَ بيتكَ بيتَ القصيد

If the houses of the exalted were to be composed into verse

Your house would be the house of poetry

يقول الثنا فيه أما سجعت

فإنك طوَّقت بالجود جيدي

It says with rhymed prose, have you not composed rhymes

For you have adorned goodness with necklaces

فيا لك من عيد نحر هناه

يقول لأبيات مدح أعيدي

Oh what an Eid with sacrificed offerings

It says to verses of praise, repeat

تنظم فيه عقود الثناءِ

وفي البحر يحسن نظم العقود

In it compose necklaces of praise

And composing strands in the sea is beautiful
