1. The embassy of Ka'fur has taught us righteousness
Strange indeed is its preaching amidst our ignorance

2. Glorious Egypt is now rid of them both
And counts them among the calamities of fate and enmity

3. Behold, we have given the embassy its due
The embassy of Egypt without question or dispute

4. A land we tended in intimacy and affection
Never to forget even if time is prolonged

5. How could we when the Nile flows in our veins
Nourishing an enduring, fervent yearning

6. In us surges every sense of pain and sorrow
They deemed the dignity of men lawful for the aggressor

7. Yes, they made it lawful for a rebellious transgressor
Who had no mercy for a people who never transgressed

8. Enough O my people, enough is your submission
For centuries acquiescing to the transgressor

9. Do not keep representing a gang
Who chant the praises of injustice in prostration

10. We suffered with them in exile; they alone
Are like a song of one walking heavily shackled

11. Their words and deeds equivocated
And inflicted injustice on the free until it was praised

12. No door was left for organized oppression
No path left unexplored; did you not hear the echo?

13. Have you not read their praises every moment
For Ka'fur, exceeding all bounds of worship?

14. Did their threats against our lives
And livelihoods escape you, till light turned black?

15. As though we live in thickets and cannot see
Edifices for the free, or dreams to pursue

16. Most wondrous is the hostility of a tyrannical group
In a land that protects the free from intimidation

17. And honors them whatever their origin
Making them forget what was lost of money and friends

18. Do we suffer scheming, backstabbing and harm
As though imprisoned, ever renewing?
