     الْحَلُّونْ يُعْجَنْ وَٱلْغِزْلَانْ تُبَاعْ.
     يَفْرَحْ لِلْيَنَّيْرْ مَنْ مَّاءُهْ قِطَاعْ
     لَقَدْ ذَا ٱلنَّصْيَاتْ أَشْكَالًا مَّلَاحْ
     وَفِيهَا بَٱللّٰهْ لَلْعَيْنِ ٱنْشِرَاحْ
     وَمَن لَّسْ مَاعُ أَوْلَاد اَسْتَرَاحْ
     إِلَّا مَنْ يَّدْرِي فَيْ اَلْحَالِ ٱتِّسَاعْ

     al-ḥallūn yuʕjan wal-ḡizlān tubāʕ.
     yafraḥ li-l-yannayr man māʔuh qiṭāʕ
     laqad ḏā n-naṣyāt ʔaškālan malāḥ
     wa-fī-hā ba-llāh l-al-ʕayni nširāḥ
     wa-man las māʕu ʔawlād astarāḥ
     ʔillā man yadrī fay ʔalḥāli ttisāʕ
