1. With God's help we witnessed the best scene
With the most generous of those able to lead every procession
١. شَهِدنا بِعَونِ اللَهِ أَفضَلَ مَشهَدٍ
بِأَكرَمِ مَن يَقوى عَلى كُلِّ مَوكِبِ
2. We rode the steeds galloping
Through every spearhead and even every lance tip
٢. رَكِبنا عَلى الجُردِ الجِيادِ سَوابِحاً
بِكُلِّ قَناةٍ بَل بِكُلِّ مُقَضَّبِ
3. With God's help we did not shy away when
A piercing stab, like an adorned tent peg, was exchanged
٣. وَكُنا بِعَونِ اللَهِ لا نَرعَوي إِذا
تَبادَرَ طَعنٌ كَالخَمامِ المُثَلَّبِ
4. And it was a jihad that had commanded us
With sovereignty, elevating the ornate building
٤. وَكانَ جِهادٌ قَد مَلَكنا بِأَمرِهِ
مِنَ المُلكِ مُستَعلي البِناءِ المُذَهَّبِ
5. You see us as the fiercest during wars
We have resolve that does not fade with every veteran
٥. تَرانا وَإِنّا في الحُروبِ أُسودُها
لَنا العَزمُ لا يَخفى بِكُلِّ مُجَرِّبِ
6. We patrol and protect while spears are thoroughfares
And on the day of war we charge every armored one
٦. نَجولُ وَنَحمي وَالرِماحُ شَوارِعٌ
وَنَطعَنُ يَومَ الحَربِ كُلَّ مُجَنَّبِ
7. We advanced on Chosroes with the intensity of our war
And our war does not cower during tribulations
٧. قَدِمنا عَلى كِسرى بِشِدَّةِ حَربِنا
وَما حَربُنا في النائِباتِ بِمُختَبي
