بِوِسَامِ المَعَارِفِ اهْنَأْ فَقَدْ كَنْتَ

جَدِيراً بفَخْرِ ذَاكَ الوِسَامْ

With the badges of knowledge, congratulations, for you have been

Worthy of the pride of that badge

وَلَعَمْرِي لأَنْتَ مِنْ قَبْلِ سَامٍ

فِي بُنَاةِ العُلَى وَمِنْ بَعْدِ سَامْ

And by my life you were before exalted

Among the builders of the heights and after exalted
