    نصروا الألى وتبوّأوا الإيمانا

    Who aided those people and made faith their home!

    وإلى الجميل وأجزل الإحسانا

    Who kept bestowing kindness and lavished bounty.

    عن روح فخرك في العلا أغصانا

    From the spirit of your glory, as boughs on high—

    في صيده الأرواح والأبدانا

    Game to your supreme majesty, for which they wearied

    Souls and bodies in its hunting.

    فَسَحَتْ لعبدك في الرضى ميدانا

    So you single me out for its most abundant share,

    Which opened for your servant a wide field of contentment.

    تُهدي الموالي يُتحف العبدانا

    By God, what a generous master! With what

    The lords offer, he presents gifts to the servants.

    يا ربنا أغنِ الّذي أغنانا

    You move my sons to pray for him who is rich through his Lord:

    “O our Lord, enrich the one who has enriched us!”

    تهديك منه الرَّوْحَ والرَّيْحانا

    And upon you be a greeting from God's bow,

    Bringing you from Him comfort and sweet basil.
