أبَرَّ صَلاحُ الدِّينِ وابْنُ صَلاحِهِ

ببَأسٍ شَهيرٍ في الحُروبِ ونائلِ

Saladin and his son shone

With famous valor in wars and gained

لِعافٍ وقِرْنٍ في نِزالٍ وأزْمَةٍ

على الجَوْدِ من صَوْبِ الحَيا والمَناصِل

Victory and esteem in battles and crises

With generosity from the direction of life and reconciliation

فيْومَ نَداهُ مُنْعِمٌ غيرُ باخِلٍ

ويومَ وغاهُ مُقْدِمٌ غيرُ ناكِلِ

One day he generously hosted

Another he valiantly led

فتىً أحْرَزَ الغاياتِ منْ مَجْدِ قوْمِهِ

وفاقَ بمسْعاهُ مَقامَ الأوائلِ

A young man who achieved the ultimate glory for his people

And exceeded in his ambitions the highest positions

وبَثَّ الأيادي بينَ حِمْصٍ ومكَّةٍ

مُغِذَّاً فأحْيا كُلَّ جَدْب وماحِلِ

He motivated in Homs and Mecca

Reviving every barren and desolate place

وآبَ منَ البيتِ الحَرامِ وأجْرُهُ

كَجدْوى يديْهِ واصِبٌ غيرُ زائلِ

He returned from the Sacred House, his reward

Like the usefulness of his hands, constant, unceasing

فما زالَتِ العَلْياءُ يا ابْنَ مُحمَّدٍ

مُصَرَّفَةً بين الوَغى والمحَافِلِ

So the supremacy, oh son of Muhammad

Continued to alternate between tumult and gatherings
