لَنا لَيلة بِالسَعد آياتها بَدَت

سُروراً فَخلنا أنَّها لَيلة القَدرِ

A night has come to us, and its signs appear to be auspicious

So we felt that it was Lailat al-Qadr

حَكَت فَلكاً بِالزُهر يَزهو وَبَدرها

بِأُفق العُلى شَيخ الشُيوخ أَبو النَصرِ

The sky was adorned with radiant stars

And its full moon rose in the high horizon, the sheikh of sheikhs, Abu al-Nasr
