بِكُتْبِكَ رَاجَ لي أَمَلي وَقَصْدِي

وَفي يَدِكَ النَّجاحُ لِكُلِّ رَاجِ

Through your book my hopes and goals grew bright

Success in your hands for all who yearn and sigh

وَلولا أَنتَ لَمْ يُرْفَعْ مَنَارِي

وَلا عَرَفَ الوَرَى قَدْرَ السِّراجِ

Without you my banners would not rise

Nor would the world know the lamp's worth high
