1. يا أميرَ المُؤمنينَ المُرتَضَى

    مَن لِدينِ الله سيفٌ مُنتَضَى

    O chosen Commander of the Faithful,

    You who are a drawn sword for God's faith.

  2. هذِه الأمةُ تَسعَى نَحوَكُم

    بِقلُوبٍ ملأت رَحبَ الفَضا

    This nation hastens toward you,

    With hearts that have filled the vastness of space,

  3. أفعمت حُبا وإخلاصا لكم

    فَرضُ عينٍ وله الكلُّ قضى

    Brimming with love and devotion to you:

    An individual duty, and all have fulfilled it.

  4. زَمنُ الأفراحِ والبُشرَى أتَى

    وتولَّى اليأسُ عنَّا وانقَضَى

    The time of joys and glad tidings has come,

    And despair has left us and come to an end.

  5. يومُ عيدِ العرشِ يومٌ مُشرِقٌ

    نورُه شَرقا وغَربا قد أضَا

    The day of the Throne Festival is a radiant day;

    Its light has shone east and west.

  6. هوَ يومٌ خَصَّه اللهُ بكُم

    لم ينَله غيرُكم مِمَّن مَضَى

    It is a day God has set apart for you,

    Which no one before you has attained.

  7. وله سِرٌّ إذا استَجلَيتَهُ

    لكَ يبدُو مثلُ بَ

    And it holds a secret: if you bring it to light,

    It appears to you like 'ba...' [incomplete text].

  8. قد شفَى قلبَ صَديقٍ صَادِقٍ

    والعِدَا قلبَهُمُ قد أَمرَضا

    It has healed the heart of a sincere friend,

    And has made the enemies' heart sick.

  9. ولقد جِئتُكُمُ مُرتجياً

    مِنكمُ أن تَقبلُوني بالرِّضَى

    And indeed I have come to you, hoping

    That you will receive me with favor.

  10. دُمتَ في العلياءِ بدرا كامِلا

    يا أميرَ المُؤمِنين المُرتَضَى

    May you remain a perfect full moon in the heights,

    O chosen Commander of the Faithful.
