1. We held our heads high and spurned the hopes of the lowly
Even if the nights have humbled us, we are not troubled
١. ترفّعت عن رجا الأنذال همّتنا
ولو دهتنا الليالي ما أهمّتنا
2. And if the turns of time have harmed us to evil
Do not think us so weak to surrender, even in death
٢. وصروف الايام لو بالشر أَمّتنا
لا تعتقدنا نذلَّ لها ولو متنا
3. Patience and resignation are our motto and virtue
٣. شعارنا الصبرُ والتفويض شيمتنا
