1. إِن الحَليم محمداً مِن معشرٍ

    شرفت بِهم مصرٌ وزاد علاها

    Indeed, forbearing Muhammad belongs to a people

    through whom Egypt was ennobled and its eminence grew.

  2. هُوَ بَينهم بَدر مُنير قَد بَدا

    يَزهو بِنُور عُلومه وَسَناها

    Among them he is a radiant full moon that has appeared,

    shining with the light of his learning and its radiance.

  3. هُوَ كنز مَعروف وَكَعبة وافد

    هُوَ حصن مصر وَعزُّها وَحِماها

    He is a treasure of kindness and a Kaaba for visitors.

    He is Egypt's fortress, its might, and its protection.

  4. هُوَ دَوحة مُدَّت وَأَورقَ غُصنُها

    وَظِلالُها عَمَّت وَطابَ سَماها

    He is a great tree, spread wide, whose branch has put forth leaves;

    and its shade has spread over all, and its sky has grown fair.
