أَلاَ هَكَذا مَنْ يَرُومُ الْفَخَارا
ويَبْغي بُلوغَ الْمُنَى والْقُصَارى
Behold! Thus is he who aspires for glory,
Seeking to attain the highest goals and summits.
فَما المجْدُ إلا نُهُوضُ الْفَتَى
إلى ثَلِّ عَرْشِ الْمُناوي جهارا
For glory is naught but the youth arising
To the lofty throne of glory openly.
وقَوْدُ الْجِيادِ لحَرِّ الْجِلادِ
وخَضْبُ الحدادِ رِضىً واخْتِيارا
The burning of steeds for the heat of battle,
The reddening of swords is pleasure and free choice.
وحَطْمُ اللدانِ وَوَخْزُ السّنانِ
وَلَيُّ الْعِنانِ وَرَكْضُ الْمِهارا
The breaking of lances and the piercing of teeth,
The loosening of reins and the racing of the skilful.
وسَقْيُ الْخُصومِ بِكَأْسِ السُّمومِ
وتَرْكُ الْفُهومِ الْعَوالي حَيَارى
The foes drink of the cup of ruin,
Leaving the wise confused and perplexed.
إمامَ الأئِمّةِ منْ هاشِمٍ
وأكْرَمَها في المعالي نِجارا
The Leader of Leaders from Hashim
And the most generous of them in nobility and honour.
طَفِرْتَ بأعْدائِكَ الخائِنين
وأكْرَمَها في المعالي نِجارا
You have destroyed your treacherous enemies
And made them drink a cup of ruin after long transgression.
وأَوْرَدْتَهُم مَوْرِداً مُورِداً
لَهُمْ بَعْدَ طولِ التَّعَدّي بَوارا
Behold! Thus is he who aspires for the heights!
Behold! Thus is he who aspires for glory!
ألا هَكَذا مَنْ يَرومُ الْعُلَى
ألا هَكَذا من يَرومُ الْفَخارا
May God reward you, O rising one,
Through whom God has removed disgrace.
فلِلّهِ دَرُّكَ من قائِمٍ
بهِ قَدْ أَقَال الإلهُ الْعِثارا
You have relieved the servants and revived the lands
You have manifested dissent and removed harm.
أَرَحْتَ الْعِبادَ عَمَرْت الْبِلادَ
أَبَدْتَ الْعِنادَ أَزَحْتَ الضّرارا
You have conquered the armies and demolished the forts,
You have established for my Divine religion a banner.
قَهَرْتَ الجنُودَ هَتَكْتَ الْبُنُودَ
أَقَمْتَ لِدينِ إلَهي شِعارا
I congratulate you on the victory, O you who have become
A bracelet on the wrist of the Prophet's family.
أهَنّيكَ بالفَتْحِ يا مَنْ غَدا
لِمِعْصَمِ آلِ الرّسولِ السّوارا
I congratulate the Leader of Guidance who has become
An earring on the crown of the Most High, wherever it settled.
أُهَنِّي إمامَ الْهُدَى مَنْ غَدا
لِتاجِ الْعُلَى دُرَّةً حَيْث دَارا
Remain a supporter of the people, vanquishing,
Remain kindling the burning wars.
وَدُمْ ناصِراً للوَرَى قاهِراً
وَدُمْ مُضْرِماً للحُروبِ النِّيَارا
O Lord, prolong the days of the Sublime One through this Leader who is unparalleled.
O Owner of the Kingdom, prepare for him
فيا رَبِّ طَوّلْ دُيولَ الْعُلَى
بِهَذا الإمامِ الذي لا يُبارَى
The vast kingdom on land and sea.
Enable his swords wherever he desires
ويا مالِكَ الْمُلْكِ مَهّدْ لَهُ
مِنَ الْمُلْكِ بَرَّ الْوَرَى والبحارا
And make the earth his abode.
And may he continue every day to see
ومَكِّنْ صَوارِمَهُ حِيْث ما
أَرادَ وصَيِّرْ لَهُ الأَرْضَ دَارا
The coming of chiefs and the arrival of captives.
ولا زالَ في كُلِّ يَوْمٍ يَرَى
وُفودَ الرُّؤوسِ وَوَفْدَ الأسارَى
