1. بِميلاد خَير الناس نَجل محمدٍ

    أَضاءَت لَهُ الدُنيا وَنالَ المَعاليا

    At the birth of the best of men, Muhammad's son,

    the world shone for him, and he attained lofty honors.

  2. وَحاز بِهِ مِن خامس في محرمٍ

    بِمَصر مَقاماً في السَعادة عاليا

    And through him, from the fifth of Muharram, he gained

    in Egypt a lofty station in happiness.

  3. وَقالَ لَهُ مَجدي يَهنِّي مؤرخاً

    أَتى صالح للشَمس وَالبَدر حاليا

    And Majdi said to him, offering congratulations in a chronogram:

    “Salih came, an adornment to the sun and the full moon.”
