1. Mu'awiya, we are but humans, so forgive
We are not mountains nor iron

2. Grant us a nation that went astray
With Yazid as its prince, and father of Yazid

3. You have eaten our land and stripped it bare
Is there one who will stand or harvest?

4. Do you hope for immortality if we die?
Neither we nor you have immortality

5. Leave the treachery of the Caliphate and walk straight
And the rule of scoundrels and slaves

6. And grant us equality, troops will not avail you
With troops followed by troops
