أَعينيّ جُودا بِدمعٍ دَرِر

على ماجدِ الخيم والمعتصَر

My eyes shed tears of pearls

For Majid of the tents and squeezed cloth

عَلى ماجدِ الجدّ واري الزناد

جَميل المحيّا عَظيم الخَطر

For Majid of ancestry and the bearer of arms

Handsome of face, great of danger

عَلى شيبةِ الحمدِ ذي المَكرمات

وَذِي المجدِ وَالعزّ وَالمُفتخر

For the white-haired one of praise and benevolence

And of glory, honor and pride

وَذي الحلمِ وَالفضلِ في النائبات

كَثيرِ المفاخِرِ جمّ الفخر

And of patience, merit in adversities

Abundant in glories, complete in pride

لَه فَضل مَجدٍ على قومهِ

مُنيرٌ يلوحُ كَضوءِ القَمَر

He has abundant glorious merit over his people

A shining light like the moon's glow

أَتَته المَنايا فلم تُشوهِ

بِصرفِ اللّيالي وريبِ القَدَر

Death came to him but did not disfigure him

By the turning of nights and chance of fate
