1. The people of Iraq have mastered excellence
And their fame has scented the clubs
١. حَوى قَصبَ السَبقِ أَهلُ العِراقِ
وَعَطَّرَ ذِكرُهُم الأَندِيَه
2. What orator can rival them
When their eulogies have been recited by the hands of fate
٢. وَأَيُّ خَطيبٍ يُجاريهِمُ
وَقَد خَطَبَت فيهِمُ الأَجدِيَه
