تــشــعُّ ذكــــراكَ حــتــَّــــــى تـمـنــحَ الـفَـلَـكَـا
Your anniversary shines until it grants the orbit
عِقْداً من الشُّهْبِ فـي كَـفِّ الهـدى سُبِكَـا
A necklace of meteors that have been casted into the palm of guidance
مـا عُـذْرُ مَـنْ لُحْـتَ فــي ظلـمـاءِ جَـوْهَـرِهِ
What is the execuse for whom you flowed shining like a star in the heart of his darkness
نجمـاً تسيـلُ فلـم يغـسـلْ بــكَ الحَلَـكَـا ؟!
but he didnot wash himself with your light.

يا مَنْشَـأَ النـورِ فـي التاريـخِ مُـذْ نَسَجـَتْ
O'origin of light in history
حمـامـةُ (الـغـارِ) مــن أشـواقِـهـا شَـبَـكَـا
Since the Ghar dove wove from its longings its nets
ومــُنْــذُ غــــارِ (حـِـــراءٍ) شَــــقَّ عَـتْـمَـتَــهُ
And since Ghar Hira'a split its darkness
فَـشَــعَّ مـــن سِـرِّهــا مـــا نَــــوَّرَ الـفَـلَـكَـا
Light has shined from its mystery & glowed the orbit
لــم تَـبْـقَ فــي مَـلَـكُـوتِ الـغـيـبِ مـعـجـزةٌ
There is no miracle left in the kingdom of the unknown
مـــا تَـوَّجَـتْـكَ عــلــى أســرارِهــا مَـلِـكَــا:
That has not crowned you as its king of secrets
كـــــلُّ الـغـمـائــمِّ قـــــدْ أَلْــقَـــتْ أَعِـنَّـتَـهَــا
All clouds have casted their spells
إلـــى الـغـمــامِ الــــذي بـالُـحــبِّ ظَـلَّـلَـكَـا
To the cloud that, with love, has shadowed you

جــاءَتْــكَ قـافـيـتــي زَحْــفـــاً، وعــاذُرهـــاَ
My rhyme crawled to you, & its excuse is
أنَّ الـحـنـيـنَ عــلـــى أضـلاعِــهــا بَــرَكَـــا
That longing has set upon its sides
عــُـذْرَ الحـكـايـةِ إنْ تـــاهَ الـحـديـثُ بِــهــا
An excuse of a story when words wandered
فالذكـريـاتُ أهـاجَـتْ خـاطــري فَـحَـكَـى:
By the memories, it talked to my mind
لـــم تَـــدْرِ (آمـنــةٌ) يـــومَ اسـتـقــلَّ بِــهــا
Amina did not know when she went
شــوطُ المـخـاضِ، وكـــلُّ الـعـالَـمِ ارتـبـكَـا
Into labor, & all the world was unsettled
لـم تَـدْرِ: هـَلْ حَمَلَـتْ فــي بَطْنِـهـَا بَـشَـراً
She did not know: Was she carrying in her womb a human
أمْ يـا تُـرَى حَمَلَـتْ فـي بَطْنِـهـا مَلَـكَـا !!
!!Or was she carrying in her womb an angel

حـتـَّى طَلَـعْـتَ عـلـى الدُّنـيـا فـمـا حَبَـكـَتْ
When you came into this world
يــــَدُ الألــوهــةِ فـَـجـْـراً مـثـلــكَ انـْحَـبَـكَــا
Allah's hand did not craft a dawn like yours
أتـيــتَ يـــا طـفــلَ (عِـلِّـــــيِّـيـنَ) فاشـتـعـلَـتْ
O’ child of sky you came to earth
فـــي جـَنَّــةِ الـخُـلْـدِ حوريَّـاتُـهـا ضَـحِـكَــا
And The fairies’ were joyous in the eternal paradise.
مـَـنْ ذَا يـَحُـدُّكَ مـيـلاداً، وهـــاهِـــيَ ذي
Who can determines your birth
أرحــامُ كــلِّ الليـالـي قــد حَبِـلْـنَ بِـكَــا !
And all the wombs of all the nights carried you
مـــا زلــــتَ تــولــدُ أعــلَــى كــــلِّ مـئـذنــةٍ
You are still born on each minaret generating
صــوتــاً تـضـافــرَ بــالأوقــاتِ واشـتـبـكَـا
A sound that intertwines with time & clashes with it
