وبالقصر أرْيحيٌّ

به يمنعُ الذِّمارُ

In the palace there is a breeze,

In which singing is forbidden

اذا جادَ فهو غيْثٌ

واِن صالَ فهو نارُ

If he is generous, then he is a blessing

And if he prays, then he is fire

حَسوداهُ في عُلاهُ

ظُبى البيض والقُطار

His enemies envy his high status

Like the cheetahs and ostriches envy him

أنيسٌ إِلى المعالي

وعن عارِها نَوارُ

A companion to high ambitions

And away from disgrace, a light

سَنا البِشْرِ في دُجاهُ

لطُرَّاقِهِ نهارُ

The good news of mankind in his darkness

For his radiance there is daylight

تخافُ الكماةُ منهُ

كما خافتِ العِشارُ

The stars fear him

As the Pleiades feared

فَتَرْوى من الكُماةِ

ومن كومِهِ الشِّفارُ

So the stars are quenched by him

And from his heap the sparks fly

جمالُ الورى المُشارُ

اذا عُدِّدَ الفَخارُ

The beauty of the world who is honored

When potsherds are counted

على عَزْمِه مضاءٌ

وفي عِطفْهِ وقارُ

With his resolve there is a shining light

And in his kindness there is dignity

ففي السَّلْم طودُ حلْمٍ

لزانِئيهِ عِثارُ

So in peace he is a mountain of tolerance

For those who slander him a lesson

وفي الحربِ ليثُ غابٍ

جَرِيٌّ به سُعارُ

And in war he is a raging lion

Rushing with him are flames

وفي الجودِ وهو جَمٌّ

إِلى السائل اعتِذارُ

And in generosity, though reluctant

To the beggar, he makes excuses

على الجوِّ من نَداهُ

ومَسْعاتِه عِطارُ

For his open-handedness

And hospitality there are perfumes

رَضِيُّ الاِمامِ ذُو الف

ضْلِ والصاحب المُشار

Satisfied with the Imam of virtue

And the chosen companion

مُجيرُ الأنام يَحمي

اذا اُسْلِم الجِوارُ

Protector of people, he guards

When neighbourhood is entrusted

فيا مُرتْضى الخِلا

فةِ والمُرْتضى اختيارُ

So O chosen of the Caliphate and the chosen of preference

Congratulations to you for all seasons

هَنيئاً لكَ المواسمُ

كَرّارَةً تُدارُ

For through you there is elation

And in them pride in you

عليها بك اغتباطٌ

وفيها بكَ افتِخارُ

And you are granted a thousand feasts

As long as pilgrimage continues

وعُمِّرْتَ ألفَ عيدٍ

لما تأمُرُ ائتِمارُ

Obeyed, happiness is for you

In its direction, symbols

مُطاعاً لكَ السَّعادةُ

في قُطْبِها شِعارُ
