1. Tell the imam of the age
And the unique one of the family of Al-Hasan
١. قُلْ لإمامِ الزَّمَنِ
وفَرْدِ آلِ الْحَسَنِ
2. The Romans have come, so what is
Our stay in Al-Yemen
٢. أَقْبَلَتِ الرُّومُ فَما
بَقَاؤُنا في الْيَمَنِ
3. Don't you know that your
Fathers, people of insight
٣. أما علمتَ أَنَّ آ
باءَكَ أهل الفطن
4. Whenever they heard
Of the Romans in any place
٤. كانُوا إذا ما سمعوا
بالرُّومِ أيّ مَوْطِنِ
5. They stood up for that and abandoned
Their families and intimacy
٥. قامُوا لِذا وَهَجَروا
أَهْلِيهمُ وَالوَسَنِ
6. And they moved their opponents
To the high mountain passes
٦. وشحَنُوا خُصُومَهُمْ
في عالِياتِ الْقِنَنِ
7. And they arranged the flanks from
Behind the villages and cities
٧. وَرَتَّبُوا الأَطْرافَ مِنْ
خَلْفِ الْقُرَى والْمُدُنِ
8. So stand up with us hastily
And travel with us and do not wait
٨. فَقُمْ بِنَا مُبَادِراً
وارْحَلْ بِنا وَلا تَنِي
