1. I reluctantly leave my beloved homeland
And every loved one in life I will leave behind

2. I bid it farewell with tears willingly
For I think tears convey the anguish of my mind

3. A country that deserted me, prolonged its disdain
For I, by Allah's will and love, am Muslim

4. A generous country, generous land
But I, in passion's path, am most generous

5. I will cry when I leave its land
Alas, the oppressed in love is wronged

6. I left a country whose name I do not know
Nor its shape, to Allah I will return

7. A country that sees misguidance as guidance
And for false idols, evil it accepts and kneels

8. If Al-Uzza called, they would answer her call
And their priests in fear would kneel and fall

9. Mecca, my home - how can it be
Where blasphemy utters and bows shamefully

10. A country that betrays Allah in its pride
In the mud of polytheism it flows unrestrained

11. A stranger in the land of polytheism, its people not my kin
Though honored ancestors and uncles dwell within

12. Allah refused that I live in a land that disgraces Him
While idols in the fervor of justice reign supreme

13. Were it not for fear of polytheism and its darkness
I would have buried myself in its valleys in passion

14. Years and long days I spent
While Mecca sought my guidance and pleading

15. I knew, and the land knows its people
That I alone protected its morals and ways

16. I will depart angry or angered
Woe to it - it will know no sleep after me

17. O home, no cycles turned for you
Nor tasted you in your nights the darkness of sleep

18. O home, no home - I am leaving forever
And from my blood the tears of the world will pour

19. I bid farewell to home - I do not bid it farewell
My heart is close though far when exiled

20. I left the home
The home of passion and fire

21. I shed my youth in you in the cycle of love
O light of my eyes and dreams of my sorrows

22. I leave a home, if I could endure, I would ransom
With the most beautiful of my days and gentlest of my dreams
