Souls struck by death, do not despair,

نفوس أصابتها المنايا فلا تكن

1. Souls struck by death, do not despair,
Perhaps one day God will bring them hope.

١. نُفوسٌ أَصابَتها المَنايا فَلا تَكُن
يَؤوساً لَعَلَّ اللَهَ يَوماً يُؤوسُها

2. Their bodies did not stop seeking glory
From fate, until their heads were gone.

٢. وَما بَرِحَت أَجسادُها تَطلُبُ العُلا
مِنَ الدَهرِ حَتّى زايَلَتها رُؤوسُها

3. They built lofty homes with sticks and twigs
And sturdy houses with their tools.

٣. بَنَت بِالظُبى أَبياتَ عِزٍّ فَأَودَعَت
بُيوتَ حَفيرٍ أَحكَمَتها فُؤوسُها

4. They were like lions of battle, within them
Were no cowards, so they fell to death with bravery.

٤. وَكانوا كَآسادِ الشَرى لَيسَ فيهِمُ
كُؤوسٌ فَدارَت لِلمَنايا كُؤوسُها
