يا سَيّدي الأَعلى وَمَن
عَدَّدتُهُ أَقوى العُدَدْ
O my supreme Lord, and He
Whom I counted the strongest of hosts,
حَلَّت طُيورُكَ بي وَقَد
قَرّبتَ مِنها ما بُعدْ
Your birds have alighted on me, and
You brought them near from afar.
كاشَفتَنا عَن سرِّها
فَوَشى إِليّ بِها الصُرَدْ
You unveiled their secret to us,
So the young birds whispered it to me.
بَيتا يَدُلُّ عَلى اِعتقا
دِك يا جَميلَ المُعتَقَدْ
A house that indicates your belief
In you, O beautiful object of belief,
الحاجِبُ الأَعلى العضدْ
قرةُ عين المعتمدْ
The Highest Eyebrow, the Strong Arm,
Delight of the eye of the dependent.
