هُنِّئْتَ بالعيدِ وأمْثالِهِ
ما عَزَّ غَرْبُ الصَّارمِ الباتِرِ
You were congratulated on the feast and the like
The might of the sharp and vanquishing sword did not diminish
ولا خَلا أمْرُكَ منْ طاعَةٍ
وسعْيُكَ المحمودُ من شاكِرِ
And your command was not devoid of obedience
And your praised endeavor from a grateful one
فبأسُكَ الهازِمُ حَدَّ الظُّبى
وجودُكَ المُخْجِلُ للماطِرِ
So your defeating might reached the extremity of towering mountains
And your generosity that shames the pouring rain
يحُلُّ منك الجارُ في مُشْرِفٍ
نائي الذُّرى يَعْيا على الناظِرِ
The neighbor takes refuge in you at a lofty eminence
A far removed person lives depending on the onlooker
وينزُلُ الضيْفُ إذا صرَّحَتْ
شنْعاؤهُ بالَّلابِنِ التَّامِرِ
And the guest descends when his singed mount
Yearns for the ripe and delicious dates
بمُبْرمِ الحَزْمِ مَريرِ القُوى
جَلْدٍ على عَسْفِ العُلى صابِرِ
With resolute determination, bitter strength
And skin patient to the arrogance of the sublime
لا يَعْضِلُ المحْلُ نَدى كَلِّهِ
إذا الطَّوى أجْحَفَ بالقادِرِ
No part of its splendor is inaccessible
When the towering horse neighs with the Able One
كمالُ دينِ اللّهِ حامي الحِمى
إذا اسْتَغاثَ المجْدُ بالنَّاصِرِ
The perfection of Allah's religion protecting the sanctuary
When glory implores the victorious supporter
فهو حَيا المُسْنِتِ يحيا بهِ
هامِدُهُ وهَوَلَعا العاثِرِ
It is the life of the honored tongue, it lives through it
Its despondent and confused stumbler
