هَنِيئاً أَيَّها المَلِكُ المُفَدَّى
لِمِصْرَ وَأَهْلِهَا عِيدُ الجُلُوسِ
O redeemed King, congratulations
On Egypt's and her people's accession day
رَعَاكَ اللّهُ مِنْ فَارُوقَ يُمْنٍ
أَدَالَ بِهَا السُّعُودَ مِنَ النُّحُوسِ
May God protect you with auspicious success
Dispelling misfortunes on your way
وَأَشْكَى شَعْبَهَا وَحَبَا وَوَاسَى
فَرَدَّ بَشَاشةَ الشَّعبِ العَبُوسِ
Comforting and soothing her folk, their sadness undone
Restoring cheer to their sullen dismay
وأَوْرَدَهَا مَوَارِدَ مِنْ صَفَاءٍ
مُحَلاَّةً مُحَلَّلَةَ الكُؤُوسِ
To watering places of purity you've led them anew Sweetly sipped from each proffered carouse
You've drawn her swords, guarding her eminence proud
وَسَلَّ سُيُوفَهَا تَحْمِي عُلاَهَا
وَوَقَّى بِالدرُوعِ وَبِالتُرُوسِ
With armor and helmets and bright metal joust
Her council you've shielded, its glory prevails
وَوَقَّى عَهدَ شورَاهَا فَعَزَّتْ
بِحِكْمَةِ سَائِسٍ وَرِضَى مَسُوسِ
With wisdom, consent of each measure discussed
Yours is command gladly obeyed by all eyes
لكَ الأَمْرُ المُطَاعُ عَلَى عُيُونٍ
مَلأْتَ حِدَاقَهَا وعَلَى الرؤُوسِ
That fill up their orbits, each head and each brow
No crown in her passions compares to your own
فَمَا تاجٌ كَتَاجِكَ فِي هَوَاهَا
وَلاَ عَرْشٌ كَعَرْشِكَ فِي النُّفُوسِ
No throne in all hearts rises higher than thou
Long life without limit, may you reign
تمَلَّ الْعُمْرَ تُوسِعُهُ فَخَاراً
وَتلْبِسُ مَجْدَهُ أَزْهَى لَبُوسِ
In splendor that clothes you with glory espoused
