1. In his remembrance, let the ignorant know the truth,
And believe that rebellion's ways are manifold.

2. It was the Greatest Battle when polytheism attacked,
And its great armies charged while its armies retreated.

3. And God's religion now stands firm,
So whoever strives against it, his striving is short.

4. God's swords have built it with resolve,
For it is firmer than the rocks of statues.

5. The forces of the tyrant fail to undo
What the Builder's hand has established and its tools.

6. God's Messenger urged the troops, "Advance!
And fear not the tyrant, for God has forsaken him."

7. Do you not see the land, how polytheism
Has covered it with a religion that destroyed people in vain?

8. Take it with might, let not its arrows go astray,
For you are its purpose, and this is its battlefield.

9. We have the guidance, either through our Lord's signs,
Or through the sword's edge that never fails its wielder.

10. When people reject proofs, proofs
Subdue their necks, and their evidence.

11. War passed in Badr, its storms surging,
Its seas boiling and its cauldrons aflame.

12. And God's Messenger called out to his God,
What an army that covered the horizon in squadrons!

13. Victory descends from the Most High, shedding
Its rains of light, pouring its torrents.

14. Ahayzum, advance, for this is serious, no enemy
Will see aught but lies in pretending to be brave.

15. God protects His religion and gives it glory,
So who dares oppose Him? Who contends with Him?

16. The army of disbelief was torn apart and its pact undone.
Its hopes were foiled and its means exhausted.

17. The Messenger faced harm, but he had only
What his morals had chosen, and his qualities.

18. A prophet whom God loves with a warrior's love,
Who sees shedding his blood as his right, so he sacrifices it.

19. He reveres and obeys Him in his soul,
And whatever He decrees, he accepts it.

20. Thus were the foremost Muslims, they passed away.
What an age that makes grief depart!

21. We have strayed from the ideal, so our affairs
Have gone to others, though the affair is theirs.

22. Whoever seeks life contends against his enemy,
What an enemy who finds none to contend with him!

23. Every tyrant allowed power over us
Has scattered plots and snares.

24. We spent our days, but our affairs are not right,
Can an affair be right if its high and low are inverted?

25. I wonder at my people whose religion has been suspended among them
And they have wronged it, while ignorance resides in its every abode.

26. They love it with the love of one whose opinion is misguided,
So their connection to it is equal, and their separation from it.

27. Prayer and fasting, but evil runs rampant through them,
Shaking the two horizons with its slipping calamities.

28. How can religion stand if courtesy and virtue
Are suspended in a community that wrongs it?

29. Peace be upon us the day our might proves true,
And takes us through whatever matter we attempt.

30. And the day the earth is under our banner,
None can match it or equal it.

31. We walk slowly while disasters befall us swiftly,
And the common evil breaks its fetters and hastens.

32. Come now, a Badrian zeal that removes harm
And alleviates the anguish that shakes one's insides.

33. Come now, a community that restrains souls from passion
And listens to the words I am saying.

34. Come now, a state for the truth that follows its path
And walks upon its traces, never diverging from it.

35. If we do not provide guidance or follow the guidance,
Then do not reject, my people, what God will do.
