God has made clear to Islam a methodology,

قد أوضح الله للإسلام منهاجا

1. God has made clear to Islam a methodology,
And people entered religion in droves.

١. قَدْ أوْضَحَ اللَّهُ للإِسْلامِ مِنْهاجا
وَالنَّاسُ قَدْ دَخَلُوا في الدِّينِ أَفْواجا

2. The world has been adorned for its inhabitants,
As if it has been clothed in silk and brocade.

٢. وقَدْ تَزيَّنتِ الدُّنيا لِساكِنها
كأَنَّما أُلْبِسَتْ وَشْياً وَدِيباجا

3. O son of Caliphs, if the clouds had known
Your call, water would not have poured from them as a flood.

٣. يَا ابْنَ الخَلائِفِ إِنَّ المُزنَ لَوْ عَلِمَتْ
نَداكَ مَا كَانَ مِنْها الماءُ ثَجَّاجا

4. And if war had known the might with which you attack,
It would not have stirred up your legendary courage.

٤. وَالحَرْبُ لَوْ عَلِمَتْ بأساً تَصُولُ بِهِ
ما هَيَّجَتْ مِنْ حُمَيَّاكَ الَّذي اهْتاجا

5. Hypocrisy is dead, and disbelief has given up its pact,
Horses kneel in submission and decoration.

٥. ماتَ النِّفاقُ وَأَعْطى الْكُفْرُ ذِمَّتَهُ
وَذَلَّتِ الخَيْلُ إِلْجاماً وَإسْراجا

6. And victory is tied to standards
That fold up the miles, traveling and lodging.

٦. وَأَصْبَحَ النَّصْرُ مَعْقوداً بِأَلْويَةٍ
تَطْوي المَراحِل تَهْجيراً وَإِدْلاجا

7. You have brought into the tent of Islam indirectly
And brought them out of the lands of polytheism directly.

٧. أَدْخَلْتَ في قُبَّةِ الإسْلامِ مَارِقَةً
أَخْرَجْتَهُمْ مِنْ دِيَارِ الشِّرْكِ إخْراجا

8. With an army where the earth shines open
Like the sea casting wave after wave.

٨. بِجَحْفلٍ تَشْرَقُ الأَرْضُ الفَضَاءُ بِه
كالبَحْرِ يَقْذِفُ بالأَمْواجِ أَمْوَاجَا

9. Led by the full moon sailing among its planets
Noisily like the blackness of night tumbling.

٩. يَقُودُهُ البَدرُ يَسري في كواكِبِهِ
عَرَمْرَماً كَسَوادِ اللَّيْلِ رَجْراجا

10. In it they see the flashes of death gleaming
And hear in it thunder rumbling.

١٠. يَرَونَ فِيهِ بُرُوقَ المَوْتِ لامِعَةً
وَيَسْمعُونَ بِهِ لِلرَّعْدِ أَهزاجا

11. You left in Aqwatayn frowning battlegrounds
Where you made the lands of polytheism sob.

١١. غادَرت في عَقوَتَي جَيَّانَ مَلْحَمَةً
أَبْكَيْتَ مِنْهَا بِأَرْضِ الشِّركِ أَعْلاجا

12. In half a month you left the earth settled
After oppression in it had spread.

١٢. في نِصْفِ شَهْرٍ تَرَكْتَ الأَرْضَ ساكِنَةً
مِنْ بَعْدِ ما كانَ فِيْهَا الجوْرُ قَدْ ماجا

13. You were found in the news passed down uprooting
Tyrants and appointing ministers from the caliphs.

١٣. وُجِدْتَ في الخَبَرِ المَأثُورِ مُنْصَلِتاً
مِنَ الخَلائِفِ خَرَّاجاً وَوَلّاجا

14. The earth fills through you with justice like it was filled
With injustice, and you clarify for good a methodology.

١٤. تُمْلا بِكَ الأَرْضُ عَدْلاً مِثْلَ مَا مُلِئَتْ
جَوْراً وَتُوضِحُ لِلْمَعْروفِ مِنْهاجَا

15. O full moon of its darkness, O sun of its morning,
O lion of its madness, it stirs stirred up.

١٥. يَا بَدْرَ ظُلْمَتِها يَا شَمْسَ صُبْحَتِها
يَا لَيْثَ حَوْمَتِها إِنْ هائِجٌ هاجا

16. Indeed the caliphate will not be pleased or content
Until you have crowned its head with the crown.

١٦. إنَّ الخَلافَةَ لَنْ تَرْضى وَلا رَضِيَتْ
حَتّى عَقدْتَ لها في رَأسِكَ التَّاجا
