1. My grandfather's glory and deeds I inherited
While your grandfather inherited sheep in Taif
١. وَوَرَثتُ جَدّي مَجدَهُ وَفِعالَهُ
وَوَرَثَت جَدَّكَ أَعنُزاً بِالطائِفِ
2. And my father who conquered lands with his sword
Subjugated them for past generations
٢. وَأَبي الَّذي فَتَحَ البِلادَ بِسَيفِهِ
فَأَذَلَّها لِبَني الزَمانِ الغابِرِ
3. And my father who seized the banner of Chosroes
A white banner fluttering like a soaring eagle
٣. وَأَبي الَّذي سَلَبَ اِبنَ كِسرى رايَةً
بَيضاءَ تَخفِقُ كَالعُقابِ الطائِرِ
4. And when I boast I boast truthfully
A boast by which I surpass all boasters
٤. وَإِذا فَخَرتُ فَخَرتُ غَيرَ مُكَذَّبٍ
فَخرٌ أَدُقُّ بِهِ فَخارَ الفاخِرِ
