1. بَنِي غنَّاجةٍ بُشرى بنجلٍ

    بِهِ الرَحمنُ قَد سَرَّ النُفوسا

    O sons of Ghannajah, glad tidings of a son

    through whom the All-Merciful has gladdened souls!

  2. رَسولُ هَناً لَقَد وافى فَطابَت

    بَشائرُ وَفدِهِ في آلِ عِيسى

    A herald of joy has indeed arrived, and sweet are

    the tidings of his coming to the house of Isa.

  3. وَحَلَّ مُؤرِّخاً في خَيرِ ربعٍ

    تَجلَّى فيهِ ايليا وَموسى

    And he settled, marking the date, in the finest abode,

    where Elijah and Moses shone forth.
