1. عِيدُكَ يَا مَوْلاي عِيدُ الجَمَـالْ

    عِيدُ الفَتَى الفَرْدِ العَزِيـزِ الْمَنَالْ

    Your festival, O my lord, is beauty's festival,

    the festival of the peerless youth, so hard to attain.

  2. لا زِلْتَ فِي يُمْنٍ وَفِي رِفْعَـةٍ

    تَعْنُـو لَكَ الدُّنْيَـا وَفِي خَيْرِ حَالْ

    May you ever remain in good fortune and eminence,

    as the world bows before you, and you remain in the best of states.

  3. لا زِلْتَ يَا مَوْلاي نَفْـحَ الهوى

    هَمْسَـاً حَنُونَـاً فِي شِفَاهِ الجَمَالْ

    May you ever remain, O my lord, love's fragrant breath,

    a tender whisper on the lips of beauty.

  4. لا زِلْتَ سِـرَّاً فِي ضَمِيرِ الْمُنَى

    وَحْيَـاً أَمِينَـاً فِي بَنَـاتِ الخَيَـالْ

    May you ever remain a secret in the inner heart of hopes,

    a faithful inspiration among the daughters of imagination.

  5. لا زِلْتَ مِثْلَ النُّورِ .. مِثْلَ النَّدَى

    مِثْلَ الشَّـذَى ، مِثْلَ رَفِيقِ الظِّلالْ

    May you ever remain like light, like dew,

    like fragrance, like the companion of shadows,

  6. مِثْلَ الحَفِيفِ الْحُلْوِ ، مِثْلَ الصِّبَا

    مِثْلَ الرُّبَـى ، مِثْلَ سُمُوقِ الجِبَالْ

    like sweet rustling, like youth,

    like the hills, like the loftiness of mountains,

  7. مِثْلَ ابْتِسَامِ الوَرْدِ ، مِثْلَ الرُّؤَى

    مِثْلَ الْمُنَـى ، مِثْلَ غُرُورِ الدَّلالْ

    like the smile of roses, like visions,

    like hopes, like the conceit of coquetry.

  8. لا زِلْتَ يَا مَوْلايَ لِيْ ذَاكِـرَاً

    رَغْمَ النَّـوَى ، رَغْمَ اللَّيَالِي الطِّوَالْ

    May you ever remain, O my lord, mindful of me,

    despite separation, despite the long nights.

  9. وَلَمْ أَزَلْ مَـوْلايَ تِلْـكَ الَّتِي

    عَرِفْتَ ، لَـنْ أَنْسَى عَلَى أَيِّ حَالْ

    And I am still, my lord, the one whom

    you knew; I shall not forget, whatever the circumstances.

  10. لَوْ مُثِّلَ الحُسْـنُ عَلَى صُـورَةٍ

    لَكُنْتَهَـا ، يَا عِـزَّهُ مِنْ مِثَـالْ

    If beauty were embodied in a form,

    you would be that form—oh, what a precious exemplar!

  11. أَنْـتَ عَلَى قُدْرَتِـهِ آيَـةٌ

    بُورِكْتَ بَارِي الخَلْـقِ يَا ذَا الجَلالْ

    You are a sign of His power.

    Blessed are You, Maker of creation, O Lord of majesty!

  12. بِاسْمِكَ كَمْ سَبَّحْتُ يَا خَالِقِي

    مَا خَفَـقَ القَلْـبُ لِهَذَا الجَمَالْ

    In Your name, how often I have glorified You, O my Creator,

    whenever the heart throbbed for this beauty.
