ربيعٌ ربيع الصفو أسعِدْ به شهرا

ربيعٌ ربيع الصفو أسعِدْ به شهرا

ودهر به الإيناس يا حسنَه دهرا

ودهر به الإيناس يا حسنَه دهرا

Rabīʿ, a springtime of serenity—how happy a month it is!

Spring, spring is the peak of joy, be happy with it for a month

And a time filled with cheer—oh, how lovely a time it is!

And an era whose comfort is bliss, oh how beautiful an era

ويوم به جاءت خديجة مُشرقٌ

ويوم به جاءت خديجة مُشرقٌ

بطلعته الحسناء والغُرة الغَرا

بطلعته الحسناء والغُرة الغَرا

And the day on which Khadija came is radiant,

And a day in which Khadija came shining

With its beautiful countenance and shining brow.

With her beautiful complexion and innocent charm

تبسمت الأرجاءُ يوم قدومها

تبسمت الأرجاءُ يوم قدومها

وأقبلت البشرى بميلادها تترى

وأقبلت البشرى بميلادها تترى

The surroundings smiled on the day of her arrival,

The horizons smiled the day she arrived

And glad tidings of her birth came one after another.

And good tidings came with her birth in succession

وأشرقت الدنيا ابتهاجاً وأرخت

وأشرقت الدنيا ابتهاجاً وأرخت

لمولدها البشير لنا البشرى

لمولدها البشير لنا البشرى

And the world shone with joy, and the date was recorded

The world shone with delight and relaxed

Of her auspicious birth, by the glad tidings, for us.

For her birth, the giver of glad tidings, the harbinger of good news for us
