شِفاء الصَدر خَيرُ الدين نَشرٌ

شِفاء الصَدر خَيرُ الدين نَشرٌ

جَديدٌ لِلمَعارف وَالمَعالي

جَديدٌ لِلمَعارف وَالمَعالي

The recovery of the chief minister, Khayr al-Din, is a revival,

The healing of the chest is the best religion, a new dawn for knowledge and virtues,

a new one for learning and lofty attainments.

And the health of his body a mighty victory, and joy for kings and citizens alike.

وَصحة جسمه نَصر عَزيز

وَصحة جسمه نَصر عَزيز

وَسَعد لِلمُلوك وَلِلأَهالي

وَسَعد لِلمُلوك وَلِلأَهالي

And his bodily health is a mighty victory,

And behold Tunis the splendid has triumphed, on the morrow of his recovery, with the purity of nights,

and good fortune for kings and for the people.

And all people since his recovery have persisted, in thanking the Almighty, the Majestic.

وَها هِيَ تُونسُ الغَرّاء فازَت

وَها هِيَ تُونسُ الغَرّاء فازَت

غَداة شِفائه بِصَفا اللَيالي

غَداة شِفائه بِصَفا اللَيالي

And behold, radiant Tunis has gained,

And my master and the fortunate one in Egypt stood, before their Lord in supplication,

on the morning of his recovery, the serenity of nights.

And indeed both were answered in prayer, with sincerity for the acceptable request,

وَكُلُّ الناس مُذ عوفي تَمادوا

وَكُلُّ الناس مُذ عوفي تَمادوا

عَلى شُكر المهيمن ذي الجَلال

عَلى شُكر المهيمن ذي الجَلال

And all the people, since he was healed, have persisted

And they attained thereby the cure from Him, the Exalted, what was wished for by the loyalists,

in thanking the Guardian, Possessor of Majesty.

And the illness vanished from him to the despised, evil in nature, damned in deeds.

وَمَجدي وَالسَعيد بِمصر قاما

وَمَجدي وَالسَعيد بِمصر قاما

لربهما عَلى قدم اِبتِهال

لربهما عَلى قدم اِبتِهال

And Majdi and al-Sa'id stood in Egypt

May a Generous Lord prolong his existence, in well-being and bliss of mind,

before their Lord, in a stance of fervent supplication.

And provide the subjects through him with justice and care, and revive him for us in good condition,

وَإِنَّهما أُجيبا في دُعاء

وَإِنَّهما أُجيبا في دُعاء

بِإِخلاصٍ لِمَقبول السُؤال

بِإِخلاصٍ لِمَقبول السُؤال

And indeed, they were both answered in prayer,

By the status of Muhammad, best of creations, and his family and companions and house.

offered sincerely for him whose petition is accepted.

وَنالا عِندَ ذاكَ البرءَ مِنهُ

وَنالا عِندَ ذاكَ البرءَ مِنهُ

تَعالى ما تَمناه الموالي

تَعالى ما تَمناه الموالي

And then they obtained the cure from Him—

exalted is He—the very thing the loyal had wished for.

وَزالَ السقمُ عَنهُ إِلى مهينٍ

وَزالَ السقمُ عَنهُ إِلى مهينٍ

لَئيمِ الطَبع مَذموم الفعال

لَئيمِ الطَبع مَذموم الفعال

And the illness passed from him to a contemptible one,

base in nature, blameworthy in deeds.

أَطالَ بَقاءه رَبٌّ كَريمٌ

أَطالَ بَقاءه رَبٌّ كَريمٌ

بِعافية وَتنعيمٍ لِبال

بِعافية وَتنعيمٍ لِبال

May the generous Lord prolong his life

with good health and ease of mind,

وَمتَّع مِنهُ بِالعَدل الرَعايا

وَمتَّع مِنهُ بِالعَدل الرَعايا

وَأَحياه لَنا في حسن حال

وَأَحياه لَنا في حسن حال

and let the subjects enjoy justice through him,

and keep him alive for us in well-being,

بِجاه محمدٍ خَير البَرايا

بِجاه محمدٍ خَير البَرايا

وَعترتِه وَأَصحابٍ وَآل

وَعترتِه وَأَصحابٍ وَآل

by the honor of Muhammad, the best of creation,

and his kindred, companions, and household.
