كاس النوى ملئت الى اصبارها

وتنوعت فحكوا الى اصمارها

The cup of life filled to the brim with bitterness

And diversified so they talked about its hems

فاعجب لها كاسا يشب لها لظى

قد لوعت كبدي بلفح اوارها

So strange for it a cup that burns for it heat

It tormented my liver with the touch of its edges

عللت نفسي اليوم وهي عليلة

بالوصل اذ هو غاية استبشارها

I blamed my soul today and it was sick

With connection as it is the ultimate glad tiding

فكانها قد بشرت بحياتها

او حييت ببشارة استثارها

As if it gave glad tidings of its life

Or revived with the good news of its arousal

لكنها قالت لتلك تعلة

طالت لياليها كطول نهارها

But it said to that cause

Its nights were long like the length of its days

قد طالما منيتني ووعدتني

فارى عداتك كالعادة فوارها

I wished it for long and promised it

So I see your promises like an erupting volcano

هذي شهور قد تقضت والذي

اهواء ليس يلوح في آثارها

I love, no sign appears in its traces

Though he is the moon and it's not possible

مع انه قمر وليس بممكن

ان الشهور تبين عن اقمارها

That months show without their moons

The moon of highness and glory Ahmad Izza

قمر العلى والمجد احمد عزة

نسل السيادة مرتد بفخارها

The progeny of sovereignty wrapped in its pride

The most graceful melody, refined

الاروع الندب المهذب من له

صيت يباري الريح في تسيارها

A call whose fame competes with the wind in its spread

He filled Al-Basita with his poems until

ملا البسيطة نظمه حتى غدت

اشعاره فيها طراز شعارها

His verses in it became the emblem of its slogans

So if we compose after him we don't find

فاذا نظمنا بعده لم نلق من

صدر لحفظ القول في اقطارها

A chest to retain the words in its lands

His poems emerged in their empty space

بزغت قصائده على فخلتها

شمسا يحار الطرف من انوارها

Like suns that eyes dazzle from their lights

So I got drunk with its inebriation and I sipped from

فثملت من اسكارها ولثمت من

ابكارها وشممت من ازهارها

Its first fruits and smelled its flowers

He was created with keeping promises naturally

جبلت على حفظ العهود طباعه

فطباعنا جبلت على اكبارها

While our natures were created with breaking them

His pens are from the pillars of religion

اقلامه للدين من اركانه

ولدولة الإسلام من انصارها

And supporters of the Islamic state

And when he understands the scattered pearls from

ومتى يفه فاللؤلؤ المنثور من

الفاظه بنظامها ونثارها

His words are in its system and scattering

The secret of chastity appeared from his family

سر النجابة من اسرته بدا

وبذاك ندرك معنيي اسرارها

And with that we sense the meaning of its secrets

The whole world boasts of its carpenter

من عترة الفاروق تفتخر الورى

بنجارها وتجل موطن جارها

And reveres the land of its neighbor

They were and still are stars of guidance

كانوا وما زالوا نجوما للهدى

من ثابت منها ومن سيارها

Both fixed and revolving

They connected with their guardian blessed connection

وصلوا وليهم حظى وصلوا عدو

هم لظى فالويل من اوغارها

And the enemy's acute agony so woe to its pits

The land of Iraq got lost with them and prided

تاهت بهم ارض العراق وفاخرت

كل البلاد بتربها وسرارها

All countries with its soil and secrets

The Badia never parted in morals and

ما فارق الحدباء في الاخلاق وال

ابداع في نظم حبيب ديارها

Innovation in composing the beloved of its lands

My love for Ahmed lasts as long as I live

حبي لاحمد ما حييت سجية

ما ان يحيل البعد من اطوارها

No matter how far the distance in its ways
