بأنك شهمٌ للمكارم قاسم

بأنك شهمٌ للمكارم قاسم

God bless you—what a patron, by whom glory swears

For you is God a Lord through whom glory resides

that you are gallant, Qasim, a dispenser of noble deeds.

You who are magnanimous and generous

ففي لثمها للقادمين مغانم

And to God is your rest through which generosity overflows

for those who come find rich rewards in kissing it.

So that for those arriving there are spoils in its kiss

أتيت بفضلٍ دونهُ الفضل واقفٌ

وجئت بجودٍ دونهُ بات حائم

وجئت بجودٍ دونهُ بات حائم

And you came with generosity beyond which generosity wanders

كأنَّ بكفيك السحاب لأننا

نرى دائماً منها تفيض الغمائم

always see clouds pouring forth from them.

See from them the pouring rain ever descending
