يا بَدر آفاق المَعالي وَمَن
زانَ علاه كُلّ وَصف حَميد
O full moon, horizons of glory, and who
Adorned its height with every praiseworthy description
هنئت بِالنَجل السَعيد الَّذي
أَسفَر عَن طالع عيد سَعيد
Congratulations on the auspicious son who
Dawned with the rising of a happy feast
جاءَ بِعيد الفِطر حَتّى لَقَد
سرَّ مَوالينا وَسرّ العَبيد
The Feast of Breaking Fast has come, and indeed
It delighted our loyalists and the servants
هَذا عَطاء اللَه سُبحانه
نِلناه بِالصَبر عَلى ما تُريد
This is the gift of Allah, glory be to Him
We attained it with patience for what You will
سُبحان مَن أَعطى لَنا نعمة
بِشُكرِها تَنمو وَنَرجو المَزيد
Glory to Him who gave us the blessing
With thanking it, it grows and we hope for more
تقارنَ العيدان لَكنّما
مَولده كانَ لَنا خَير عيد
The feasts coincided, but
His birth was for us the best feast
فَيا لَهُ عيداً سَعيداً حَوى
أرّخ بَهاء بِالغلام السَعيد
Oh what a happy feast contained
The date of his auspicious birth
