1. يا مَن سَحائِبُ جُودِه

    بالجَودِ هاطِلةُ الغَمامَه

    O one whose clouds of generosity

    are rain clouds pouring forth bounty,

  2. وعَلى صَفيحَةِ وَجههِ

    لسَريع نَجدَتِهِ عَلامَه

    and on the surface of whose face

    is a sign of his swift aid:

  3. بك أيُّها الشِّبلُ المُذي

    قُ اللَّيثَ في الهَيجا حِمامَه

    through you, O lion cub who makes

    the lion taste its death in battle,

  4. بكَ صارتِ الفُرسانُ تُد

    عَى من سُلَيمٍ بالسَّلامَه

    through you, the horsemen have come to be

    called “Safety”—those of Sulaym.

  5. فانظُر لحَالي إنَّ حا

    لي ليسَ تَحتَملُ الإقامَه

    So look to my plight, for my

    plight cannot endure staying on.
