رعى اللَه أوصافا بفضلك شمتها

وآيات مجد من علاك عهدتها

God has granted you virtues that I have perceived

And signs of glory from your highness I have witnessed

بروحي أفدي نعمةً منك حزتها

وباقة زهرٍ من أقاحٍ منحتها

With my soul I ransom a blessing from you I have seized

And a bouquet of flowers from meadows you have gifted

من البطل المشهور في عظم فعله

يلوح سناها في ابتهاج كومض

From the famous hero of great deeds

Whose teeth shine in joyful flashes

وقد جمعت في حسنها كل مقتض

وازهارها الحسناء في كف مقبض

Who has gathered in his beauty every requisite

And his beautiful blooming in a grasped fist

مننوعة الألوان ما بين أبيض

يلألىء نورا مثل اشراق فضله

Of varied colors between white

Radiating light like the brilliance of his merit

يحاكي الثريا في انتظام طلوعها

واحداق مدّاح لديك خضوعها

Rivaling the chandelier in the arrangement of its rising

And the gazes of a praiser to you is its submission

ويا حبذا إذ من نداك رجوعها

وتزهو بألوان عجيب وقوعها

And how wonderful when from your company is its return

And it blossoms with wondrous colors is its occurrence

حكت حالة الأعداء في يوم حمله

إذا جال يوما في كتائب حزبهم

It told the state of enemies on the day of his attack

When one day in their parties' battalions he charged

وفاجا بعسالٍ مواكب ركبهم

فكم أدبروا خوفا ومن فرط رعبهم

And surprised them with a courageous cavalry company

So how they retreated in fear and ample dread

فصفر وجوه ثمّ زرق كخطبهم

وحمرٌ كدمّ فاض من حدّ نصله

Yellow faced then blue like their unfortunate condition

And red like the blood spilled from the edge of his sword
