مَوْلاَي حباً وَإِجْلاَلا وَتكْرُمَةً

مَسْعَاكَ ضَمَّ قِوَى الشَّعْبَيْنِ آمَادا

My master, with love, reverence, and honor

Your arrival brought together the strength of two peoples as support

طَلَعْتَ فِي مِصْرَ وَالأَعْيَادُ قَائِمَةٌ

فَزَادَهَا الطَّالِعُ الْمَيْمُونُ أَعْيَادا

You rose in Egypt while the holidays were happening

So the auspicious rising added to the holidays

مُلوكُ هَاشِمَ فَخْرُ الضَّاد مِنْ قِدَمٍ

فِي كُلِّ مَمْلَكَةٍ قَدْ شَرَّفوا الضَّادا

The kings of Hashim, pride of the letter 'd' from early times

In every kingdom they have honored the letter 'd'

وُجُوهُهُمْ حَيْثُ تَجْلُوهَا مَفَاخِرُهُمْ

تَجْلُو بِحَاراً وَأَقْمَاراً وَآسَادا

Their faces wherever their glories appear

Appear like seas and moons and lion bodies

أَعَزَّكَ اللهُ يَا مَوْلاَيَ مُعْتَضَداً

بِعَوْنه وَأَعَزَّ اللهُ بَغْدَادا

May God honor you, my master, supported

With His help, and may God honor Baghdad
