1. Curb your tears, crying and wailing will not avail
Rise up and do not complain of fate, only the indolent complain

2. Take the path of determination, and do not say "How is the path?"
No one with hope who strives goes astray

3. Not at all, no one with a noble goal fails
You have wasted your life in wandering and sorrow

4. And sat with folded arms saying time has fought me
Why didn't you take on the burden yourself then? Who will take it on?

5. How much you blamed the country's ills while you are one of its illnesses
Misfortune is its ailment, did you look for its symptoms?

6. O you who wield the axe to destroy it atop its ruins
Sit down, you are not the one to work for its revival

7. And look with your bleary eyes that toil in its ponds
A country bought and sold, may the country revive

8. Had you wanted its good you'd have given your blood as its price
And bandaged its wounds if you were one of the wise

9. Pessimism has become inherent in your talk
Like the crow croaking omens, making the world hear its cawing

10. That is the truth, and the sick at heart are wounded by the truth
A hope's glimmer beckons, so take this glimmer as your guide

11. Your livelihood would not have narrowed had you strived for it
Even if you did not complain of its narrowness

12. But you imagined debility so imagination made the body sick
And thought you had weakened, so weakness crept into the bone

13. God, then God again! How fine concord and agreement are
Blessed conference, united without discord or conflict

14. How many hearts have softened in it that were not soft before
Today, thanks to you, my homeland drinks the cup of joy untroubled

15. Pay the troublemakers no mind, you see their faces contorted
There must be a contemptible group that delights in sedition

16. Those souls nourished from childhood on that milk
Raised on love of wrangling, and that rancor nursed them

17. Pay the alarmists no heed, their steeds are insignificant
Love of appearing better than people stems from arrogance

18. What is not a merit that adorns you, appearing is corruption
Walk with God's eye, that great hope

19. Walk on, hearts have been purified, blessed are those hearts
Walk on, your way is the best way for your country's good

20. Cement affection, concord, and optimism as one
Have no fear if building relies on virtue and leans on it

21. Hail the youth and say, greetings, you are tomorrow's hope
Your resolutions are firm to rebuff the transgressing wicked

22. And God has extended a hand for you that rises over the strongest hand
My homeland, I send the youth to you like fresh flowers

23. There must come a fruit one day, though not yet in bud
Its basil is proper knowledge and its spirit good morals

24. My homeland, my heart is mortgaged, homeland, in love of you
It will not settle, and if you obtain what you want of it, it will settle
