أأحْبَابَنَا إنْ أجمَعَ البُعْدُ بَعدَكُمْ

أأحْبَابَنَا إنْ أجمَعَ البُعْدُ بَعدَكُمْ

على حربِنَا واستوهنَتْنَا عَسَاكِرُهْ

على حربِنَا واستوهنَتْنَا عَسَاكِرُهْ

O our beloveds, if separation, after your departure, has resolved

Our friends, though distance parts us far and wide

to wage war against us, and its armies have deemed us weak,

And hostile armies seek to crush our pride

وغَادَرنَا مُسْتَسلمِينَ لِحِزبِهِ

وغَادَرنَا مُسْتَسلمِينَ لِحِزبِهِ

فلا غَرْوَ فالمغْلُوبُ من غَابَ ناصِرُهْ

فلا غَرْوَ فالمغْلُوبُ من غَابَ ناصِرُهْ

and it has left us surrendered to its faction,

Abandoned, helpless, to the victor's might

then it is no wonder, for the vanquished is he whose supporter is absent.

No shame to fall when left without a knight
