اسلَم وحضرتُكَ المُهابه

للنَّاسِ أمنٌ أو مثابه

Peace be upon you, O revered one,

For people, security or reward.

أنتَ الهزبرُ وإنَّما

لك حوزةُ الإسلامِ غابَه

You are the victorious group, and indeed,

The guardianship of Islam is your dense forest.

وستَغتدي لك أو غَدت

عن صاحبِ الأمرِ النيابه

You will gain or have gained,

The deputyship from the man of authority.

انظر إلى أملٍ أناخَ

ببابِك العالي ركابَه

Look at the hope that has descended,

At your lofty door its riders.

يا مَن إذا مُضَرُ انتمت

لِعُلَى نمته في الذؤابه

O you, when misfortune settles,

It aims for the highest of its nests.

وإذا هي انتضلت بأس

هم رأيها فلهُ الإصابه

And when it is eradicated by might,

They see it, so for him is success.

وله مَكارمُ غَبَّرت

حتَّى بوجهِك يا عَرابَه

And he has noble traits that have been covered

Until with your face, O gentle one.

لا يستطيعُ البحرُ يوماً

أن ينوبَ لنا منابَه

The sea can never, one day,

Take its place for us as a substitute.

وله خِلالٌ في السماحةِ

ليس توجَدُ في السحابه

And he has manners in generosity,

That cannot be found in the clouds.

رجعَ الزمانُ إلى الصِبا

بكَ إذ أعدَت له شَبابه

Time has returned to youth,

With you, when you returned its vigor to it.

أنت الذي اقتدحت بنو

فهرٍ به زندَ النجابه

You are the one who the fires of

Glory sparked with it the embers.

عَقَدَت به عَلَمَ الفخارِ

فرفَّ منشورَ الذؤابه

With it, the flag of pride was bound,

So it fluttered the banner of glory.

سمعاً مقالةَ من أعدَّ

كَ للعظيمِ إذا أرابَه

Hearing the words of one who prepared

Greatness for you when it soothes you.

يا مبدئ النَعما ليك

ملها أعدها مستطابه

O source of bounty, for you

Are its recipient, prepared and good.

فيدي وأنتَ مُطيلُها

قَصُرت فعجِّل بالإثابه

My hand, and you make it last,

Fell short, so hurry with the reward.

فالحزمُ شاوَرني وقا

لَ اهتُف به واحمد جوابه

Decisiveness has counseled me, so

I cry it and praise its answer.
