لنا مَلِكٌ تاجُهُ المُشتري

لنا مَلِكٌ تاجُهُ المُشتري

فما أحدٌ غيرُهُ لابِسُهْ

فما أحدٌ غيرُهُ لابِسُهْ

We have a king whose crown is Jupiter;

We have a king whose crown is Almushteri

so no one but he wears it.

So no one else wears it

ومُلْكُ الورى فَرَسٌ مُلْجَمٌ

ومُلْكُ الورى فَرَسٌ مُلْجَمٌ

وما أحدٌ غيرُهُ فارِسُهْ

وما أحدٌ غيرُهُ فارِسُهْ

And mankind’s dominion is a bridled horse,

And the kingdom of the world is a bridled horse

and no one but he is its rider.

And no one else rides it

وقد فتحَ الريَّ فراشُهُ

وقد فتحَ الريَّ فراشُهُ

وكرمانُ يَفْتَحها سائِسُهْ

وكرمانُ يَفْتَحها سائِسُهْ

His carpet-spreader has already conquered Rayy,

And he opened the gardens, his bed

and his groom will conquer Kirman.

And the vineyards, their opener makes them flourish
