فدىً لَكَ ذا العَبد مَع ما مَلك
فَقَد بَلَغ الفَوز إِذ أَمّلَك
For you, this servant and all he owns are ransomed
He has attained triumph, now that you own him
أَعدتَ حَياتيَ بَعدَ الفَنا
فَأَيقَن بِالبَعث مَن قَد هَلَك
You revived my life after death
So whoever perishes believes in resurrection
فَما كانَ مِنكَ سَخاءً فَلي
وَما كانَ مِنّي ثَناءً فَلَك
Whatever generosity was from you, is for me
And whatever praise was from me, is for you
تَمَلّكت رقّي وَرقّ العِيال
فَنَحنُ عَبيدك وَالأَمر لَك
You have taken care of me and my dependents
For we are your servants, and the command is yours
وَعَمَّت هِباتك هَذي الدِيار
فَيا أَنفَع الغَيث ما أَهطلك
Your blessings have spread across these lands
O, most beneficial rain, how heavily you pour!
أَنخنا لَدَيك مَطايا الرَجا
وَآمالنا وَرَدت مَنهلك
We raced to you with hopes of favor
And our hopes found their way to your spring
وَأسرع مِنّا نَداك الَّذي
بَلَغناه مِن قَبل أَن نَسأَلَك
Your call reached us faster
Than we could ask you first
فَيا مَعدَن الفَضل سُبحان مَن
عَلى مَن سواك لَقَد فَضَّلك
O fountain of generosity, glory to the One
Who favored you over all others
تَبارَك مَن بِكَ زان العُلى
كَما زانَ بِالنيرين الفَلك
Blessed is He who adorned the heights with you
As the sky is adorned with bright stars
تَباهى بِكَ الملك كُلّ البَها
فَما أَنتَ في المُلك إِلّا مَلَك
The king boasts of you against all his pride
For in his kingdom, you are but an angel
سَلَكت سَبيل الهُدى تابِعاً
هُدى سَيّد الخَلق فيما سَلَك
You followed the path of guidance, adhering
To the guide of mankind in all he undertook
فَزنتَ البِلاد وصُنتَ العِباد
وَبِالعَدل رَبُّ السَما عَدَّلك
You brought justice to the lands and protected the people
So the Lord of the Heavens made you just
وَقَلّدك الأَمر سُلطاننا
فنوَّلَه مِثلَما نَوَّلك
And our Sultan granted you command
Appointing you as he himself was appointed
فَقُمت بِأَعباء ملك سَما
فَما اِرتابَ مِنكَ وَلا اِستهملك
You took on the burdens of the kingdom
Never doubting or feeling overwhelmed
بحَقٍّ أَعزّكَ عَبد العَزيز
فَأَنتَ جَدير بِما اِستأهلك
Abdulaziz, with truth has honored you
For you are worthy of what you have attained
فَيا لَكَ سَيفاً صَقيلاً غَدَت
عِناية رَبِّ السَما صيقلك
O you whose sharpened sword was honed
By the care of the Lord of the Heavens
عَقلت الأُمور بِأَسبابها
فَللّه درّك ما أَعقلك
You handled matters wisely
By God, how rational you are!
حباك المَكارم رَبُّ السَماء
وَأَعطاك مِن جودهِ مَأملك
The Lord of the Heavens endowed you with virtues
And gave you from His generosity all you possess
فَأَوجَبت شُكراً لِنَعمائه
عَلى الناس طرّاً بِما خَوَّلك
So you deserved thanks for His blessings
By sharing with people from what He authorized you
فيا أَسعَد الناس في نعمة
مِن اللَه نَرغَب أَن تَشمَلَك
O happiest of people in the bounty
From God, we pray it includes you
وَيا زينة الدَهر دُم سالِماً
مَدى الدَهر وَالدَهر كَالعَبد لَك
O jewel of time, live forever
As time itself is your obedient slave
وَيا بَدر لا غبت عَن مُهجة
بِحُكم الوَفاءِ غَدَت مَنزلك
O moon, never absent from the sky
Loyally it became your dwelling
وَلا زِلت كَالشَمس في عزّها
وَكُلّ البُروج لَها في فَلَك
Still like the sun in its glory
With all constellations orbiting you
شَملت الأَنام بِفعل الجَميل
وَبِالفَضل مَولاك قَد جَمّلك
You included people with good deeds
And your Master adorned you with grace
إِلى أَن تَناهَت صِفات الكَمال
إِلَيكَ فَسُبحان مَن كَمَّلَك
Until all qualities of perfection
Reached you, glory to the One who perfected you!
