طلعةٌ من ضياء عبد الحميد

هي أبهى من الصباح الجديد

A radiance from Abdul Hamid's splendor

It is more beautiful than the new dawn

طلعةٌ من لطائفٍ وفنونٍ

خلتُها من بدائعي في قصيدي

A radiance of subtleties and arts

I composed it with my masterpieces in my poem

يوم ميلاده أغرُّ سعيدٌ

إنه طلعة الزمان السعيد

On his birthday I became very happy

He is the radiance of the happy times

من سنا حسنه ونور سناه

صدحت لوعتي بهذا النشيد

From his good looks and light of his years

My passion roared with this anthem

كدتُ أشكو إليه شوقي إليه

فتعوذتُ بالحميد المجيد

I almost complained to him of my longing for him

So I sought refuge in The Glorious and The Praiseworthy
