لي صاحِبٌ أَثقَلُ مِن أُحدِ

لي صاحِبٌ أَثقَلُ مِن أُحدِ

قَرينُهُ ما عاشَ في جَهدِ

قَرينُهُ ما عاشَ في جَهدِ

I have a companion heavier than Mount Uhud;

I have a friend heavier than Mount Uhud

I have a friend more burdensome than Mount Uhud,

His companion is in hardship as long as he lives.

His company as long as he lived was a burden

His constant companion lives in endless strain.

عَلامَةُ البُغضِ عَلى وَجهِهِ

عَلامَةُ البُغضِ عَلى وَجهِهِ

بَيِّنَةٌ مُذ حَلَّ في المَهدِ

بَيِّنَةٌ مُذ حَلَّ في المَهدِ

The mark of hatred on his face

The mark of hatred is on his face

The mark of loathing is stamped upon his face,

Has been plain since he lay in the cradle.

Evident since he was in the cradle

Evident since the moment he took to the cradle.

لَو دَخَلَ النارَ طَفى حَرَّها

لَو دَخَلَ النارَ طَفى حَرَّها

فَماتَ مَن فيها مِنَ البَردِ

فَماتَ مَن فيها مِنَ البَردِ

If he entered the Fire, he would quench its heat,

If he entered the fire, its heat would subside

Were he to enter Hellfire, he would quench its heat,

And so whoever was within it would die of cold.

And those in it would die of cold

And those within would die of bitter cold.
