To the land of God's House, processions made pilgrimage,
Caravans journeyed to the Holy Land,
To the land of God's House, great processions have streamed, / Caravans of piety where shoulders crowd and press.
Processions of piety, jostled by shoulders.
Crowds jostling as they marched in lines.
Within them, hearts fluttered toward Mecca's embrace, / On wings of longing, though borne within vessels.

And within them, hearts fluttered toward Mecca,
In them were hearts that fluttered to Mecca,
On foot and mounted, they came from distant lands, / From every deep ravine, the walker and the rider appeared.
On wings of longing, held within vessels.
On wings of longing borne by ships.
Every face is a Qibla; around it they gathered, / United in love and piety, with tears freely flowing.

ومن كل فج هل ساع وراكب
On foot and mounted, they came from its regions,
Walkers and riders came from every corner,
Clad in white garments stripped of every sewn thread, / Turning solely to God, shunning all profanity.
And from every mountain pass appeared a walker and a rider.
Through each ravine rode horse and rider.
They poured forth to the circling grounds and the Sacred Rite, / Where sins are cast down and burdens removed.

And each one's face was toward the qibla; around it they met,
Each face turned to that one direction,
The spirits of Purity shine radiant with their light, / Bound together by unity and shared sacred founts.
In love and piety, each pouring forth tears.
Tears of devotion freely flowing.
Their prayer is 'Labbayk, Labbayk, O our Lord', / Yours is the Praise and Grace, and Your remembrance is duty.

In white garments, they were divested of sewn clothing,
In robes of white, unsewn, unstained,
For Your remembrance is piety for hearts and a vital need, / While noble mounts have borne them to the place of repentance.
And of lewdness, turning away from it toward God.
Bowing to God, their burdens lifting.
The world strove toward You, its peoples raising their call, / To a sanctuary surrounded by piercing light.

They streamed toward the corner of the circumambulation ground and a sacred site,
They poured into the circling place of Tawaf,
They have left behind the memory of kin and home, / Forsaking all else until the sacred journey is done.
Where sins and faults are removed.
Where sins are shed and faults forgiven.

Their spirits glowed with light serene
And unity and common outlooks have brought them together.
At oneness found, all drinking from one spring.

Until their holy quest is satisfied.
