غدا الدين من فرط المسرَّة باسماً

غدا الدين من فرط المسرَّة باسماً

طليق المحيَّا حيث أنت لهُ نجمُ

طليق المحيَّا حيث أنت لهُ نجمُ

Faith has become all smiles from overflowing joy,

Tomorrow religion will out of excessive joy

Bright of countenance, since you are its star.

Become a name, wherever you are, its star,

يكاد يغيضُ البحر من خجلٍ به

يكاد يغيضُ البحر من خجلٍ به

ويزدنُ بالجود العميم له خصمُ

ويزدنُ بالجود العميم له خصمُ

The sea nearly ebbs away in shame before him,

The sea almost boils from shyness because of it,

And a rival to it is adorned with all-embracing generosity.

And its generous, bountiful opponent gets angry at it.

ولم نر ليثاً قبله جمُعت لهُ

ولم نر ليثاً قبله جمُعت لهُ

شجاعته والجود والعلم والفهمُ

شجاعته والجود والعلم والفهمُ

Nor have we seen before him a lion in whom were united

And we have not seen a lion before it who gathered

His courage, generosity, knowledge, and understanding.

His courage, generosity, knowledge and understanding.

يفِرُّ كَميُّ الجيش عند نزالهِ

يفِرُّ كَميُّ الجيش عند نزالهِ

كما فرَّ من معروف راحته العُدم

كما فرَّ من معروف راحته العُدم

The army's armored champion flees when facing him,

The mass of the army flees during his fighting

Just as poverty fled from the bounty of his palm.

As the non-existence fled from the comfort of Ma'roof.

فلا زال يطوي كل عيدٍ بمثلهِ

فلا زال يطوي كل عيدٍ بمثلهِ

وتُثني بفضليه المعاركُ والسَّلمُ

وتُثني بفضليه المعاركُ والسَّلمُ

So may he ever pass from each feast to another like it,

So he continued to fold up every festival with its like,

And may battles and peace praise him for his two virtues.

And the battles and peace bend down to his virtues.
