طلعةٌ من ضياء عبد الحميد

طلعةٌ من ضياء عبد الحميد

هي أبهى من الصباح الجديد

هي أبهى من الصباح الجديد

A countenance from the radiance of Abd al-Hamid,

A radiance from Abdul Hamid's splendor

More resplendent than the new morning.

It is more beautiful than the new dawn

طلعةٌ من لطائفٍ وفنونٍ

طلعةٌ من لطائفٍ وفنونٍ

خلتُها من بدائعي في قصيدي

خلتُها من بدائعي في قصيدي

A countenance of delicate charms and arts,

A radiance of subtleties and arts

I thought it one of my wondrous creations in my verse.

I composed it with my masterpieces in my poem

يوم ميلاده أغرُّ سعيدٌ

يوم ميلاده أغرُّ سعيدٌ

إنه طلعة الزمان السعيد

إنه طلعة الزمان السعيد

The day of his birth is radiant and happy;

On his birthday I became very happy

Indeed, he is the countenance of a happy age.

He is the radiance of the happy times

من سنا حسنه ونور سناه

من سنا حسنه ونور سناه

صدحت لوعتي بهذا النشيد

صدحت لوعتي بهذا النشيد

From the glow of his beauty and the light of his radiance,

From his good looks and light of his years

My anguish sang out with this song.

My passion roared with this anthem

كدتُ أشكو إليه شوقي إليه

كدتُ أشكو إليه شوقي إليه

فتعوذتُ بالحميد المجيد

فتعوذتُ بالحميد المجيد

I almost complained to him of my longing for him,

I almost complained to him of my longing for him

So I sought refuge in the Praiseworthy, the Glorious.

So I sought refuge in The Glorious and The Praiseworthy
