دَارٌ تَدورُ بِهَا السُّعودْ

دَارٌ تَدورُ بِهَا السُّعودْ

يُعْطي الْعُهودَ عَلَى الشُّهُودْ

يُعْطي الْعُهودَ عَلَى الشُّهُودْ

A house in which good fortunes revolve;

A house where happiness revolves

An abode wherein good fortunes revolve,

it gives pledges before witnesses,

Promises made witnessed

Granting covenants before witnesses,

وَتَقُولُ فِي دَوَرَانِهَا

وَتَقُولُ فِي دَوَرَانِهَا

بُشْرَى بِإِنْجَازِ الْوُعودْ

بُشْرَى بِإِنْجَازِ الْوُعودْ

and says as it revolves:

As it revolves it says

And proclaiming as it turns:

“Glad tidings of promises fulfilled!”

Good news the promises are fulfilled

Glad tidings of promises fulfilled!

وَمَتَى تُحِسُّ أَبَا عَلِ

وَمَتَى تُحِسُّ أَبَا عَلِ

يٍّ حَفَّهَا مِنْهَا وُفُودْ

يٍّ حَفَّهَا مِنْهَا وُفُودْ

And whenever it senses Abu ʿAli,

And when Abu Ali feels it surrounding him

And whenever it perceives Abu Ali,

delegations from it surround it;

It whispers to him gently

While delegations gather around it,

تُومِي إِلَيْهِ بِالْهَنَا

تُومِي إِلَيْهِ بِالْهَنَا

ءِ بِمَا يَذُوبُ لَهُ الْحَسُودْ

ءِ بِمَا يَذُوبُ لَهُ الْحَسُودْ

it gestures to him with joy,

With what makes the envious melt

It signals to him with pure felicity,

in a way that makes the envious one melt.

With grace that makes the envious melt away.
