My lord, this is an invitation to a journey

يا سيدي دعوة ذي رحلة

1. My lord, this is an invitation to a journey
That is accelerating in its pace

١. يا سيدي دعوة ذي رحلةٍ
مقتصرٍ في الجري مسبوقِ

2. And the people are determined in their resolve
Having beat the drums and trumpets

٢. والقوم قد صح بهم عزمهم
وضربوا بالطبل والبوق

3. And prepared their horses for travel
While my gray steed is in its stable

٣. وضمروا للسير أفراسهم
وفرسي الأشهب في زيقي

4. In fact, I have a horse like no other
My lord, never before seen by man

٤. بل لي كميتٌ ما رئي مثله
يا سيدي قط لمخلوق

5. As if I’m riding upon its back
A vast palace atop a hill

٥. كأنني في متنه راكبٌ
داليةً في رأس زرنوق

6. It has no faults or imperfections
For it and I are cut from the same cloth

٦. ما في فضلٌ لا ولا فيه لي
لأنني وهو على الريق
