أَأَحمَدُ إِنَّ الحاسِدينَ كَثيرُ

وَما لَكَ إِن عُدَّ الكِرامُ نَظيرُ

Ahmad, indeed the envious are many

And what is it to you if the generous are few

حَلَلتَ مَحَلّاً فاضِلاً مُتَقَدِّماً

مِنَ المَجدِ وَالفَخرُ القَديمُ فَخورُ

You have attained a virtuous, eminent status

Of old glory and pride, magnificent

فَكُلُّ قَوِيٍّ أَو غَنِيٍّ فَإِنَّهُ

إِلَيكَ وَلَو نالَ السَماءَ فَقيرُ

So every strong or rich man, indeed he

Is in need of you, even if he attained the heavens, destitute

إِلَيكَ تَناهى المَجدُ مِن كُلِّ وُجهَةٍ

يَصيرُ فَما يَعدوكَ حينَ تَصيرُ

To you ultimate glory leads from every direction

To become whatever you become when you become

وَبَدرُ إِيادٍ أَنتَ لا يُنكِرونَهُ

كَذاكَ إِيادٌ لِلأَنامِ بُدورُ

And the full moon of Eyaad, you are, they do not deny

Thus Eyaad for people, full moons

فَما مِن نَدىً إِلّا إِلَيكَ مَحَلُّهُ

وَلا رُفقَةٌ إِلّا إِلَيكَ تَسيرُ

So there is no dew, except its place is to you

Nor any fellowship, except it moves toward you

تَجَنَّبتَ أَن تُدعى الأَميرَ تَواضُعاً

وَأَنتَ لِمَن يُدعى الأَميرَ أَميرُ

You avoided being called the prince humbly

And you are, for whomever is called prince, prince
