بُشراكمو بازديادي
يا آل بيتي ومصري
With my arrival, rejoice
Oh my family and my Egypt
في بيتنا الخزنداري
أشرقت إشراق بدر
In our filled home
A full moon has risen
شابهت جدتي اسما
ففاح بالطبيب نشري
Resembling my grandmother by name
The aroma spread through the doctor
الشعر باسمي تغنى
فيما عزوه لبشر
Poetry was sung with my name
While they attributed it to Bashar
من ساق لابنة عم
يحبها خير مهر
One who brought for his cousin
The best of dowries
وصارع الليث حتى
أوفى لها بالنذر
And wrestled with the lion
Fulfilling his vow for her
وهكذا من تردى
مستبسلا ثوب حر
And so whoever declines
Shedding his free garment
ميلاد مثلي دليل
على تعاظم ذكري
A birth like mine proves
My glory keeps getting bigger
في عام حرب عوان
شرعت أحسب عمري
In the year of the supportive war
I started counting my age
وكان عصري عظيما
وباله من عصر
And my era was great
And an era worries about it
باسمي البتول تسمت
بنت العلا والطهر
The maiden was named after me
The daughter of highness and purity
أبو الثناء وحسبي
أبي وإن لست أطري
My father's pride and my lineage
Even if I don't brag
شوال شهر ازديادي
وحسبكم عيد فطر
Shawwal is the month of my birth
And for you it's Eid al-Fitr
ولدت فيه لهذا
أرّخت بالعيد شهي
I was born in it, so
I dated with the happy Eid
