Sol 6.1

  1. لسعيد الكِرام عام خَصيبُ

    مَدحه لِلأَنام فيهِ يَطيبُ

    For Sa'id of the noble ones, a bountiful year.

    In it, praising him is sweet to all people.

  2. وَشذاه يَضوع مِنهُ بِمَصر

    فيهِ عِندَ اللقا عَبيرٌ وَطيب

    And his fragrance wafts from him through Egypt;

    In him, when met, are fragrance and perfume.

  3. وَلِكُلٍّ من الرَعية فيه

    مِن نَداه عَلى الدَوام نَصيب

    And for each of the subjects, in it,

    There is always a share of his bounty.

  4. وَسَيحظى بِما يَشاء وَيَسعى

    لِمَعاليه فيهِ نَصرٌ قَريب

    And he will attain what he wishes; and hastening

    To his exalted station in it is a victory close at hand.

  5. وَيَطوف السُرور حَول سرير

    زانَهُ مِنهُ عادل وَأَريب

    And joy circles about a throne

    Adorned by the just and discerning man he is.

  6. زانَهُ مِنهُ هَيبة لِمَليك

    دائِماً صَدره الشَريف رَحيب

    Adorned by the kingly awe that emanates from him;

    His noble breast is ever broad.

  7. أَيد اللَه مُلكه بِجُنود

    كَأسود لَها ثَبات عَجيب

    May God strengthen his rule with troops,

    Like lions, whose steadfastness is wondrous—

  8. وَبِعَليائه اِقتَدى في سَداد

    طوسنٌ شَبله الذكيّ اللَبيب

    And his lofty example was followed in uprightness

    By Tosun, his intelligent, discerning cub—

  9. ما شَدا بِامتداحه كُلّ غُصن

    لِلتَهاني طُول المَدى عَندليب

    So long as on every bough his praises are sung

    By a nightingale, offering congratulations through all time,

  10. أَو تغنَّى وَقال لِلمَجد أَرّخ

    لِسَعيد الكِرام عام خَصيب

    Or it sings and says to Glory, “Record the date:

    For Sa'id of the noble ones, a bountiful year.”
