1. يا بْنَ الخَلائِفِ لا تَذِلَّ لِنَكْبَةٍ

    يِلْتَفُّ فِيها بِالرَّجَاءِ الياسُ

    O son of caliphs, do not bow before a calamity

    In which despair entwines with hope.

  2. فَسَجِيَّةُ الأُمَويِّ كِبْرٌ زانَهُ

    كَرَمٌ وَجُودٌ دَبَّ فيهِ باسُ

    For the Umayyad's nature is pride, adorned

    By nobility and generosity in which valor courses.

  3. وَلَنا مِنَ الشَّرَفِ الرَّفيعِ يَفاعُهُ

    وَاللهُ يَعْلَمُ ذاكَ ثُمَّ النّاسُ

    And ours is the summit of lofty honor;

    And God knows this, and mankind after Him.

  4. وَجَمِيعُ مَنْ في الأَرْضِ لَيْسَ بِمُنْكِرٍ

    أَنَّ الوَرَى ذَنَبٌ وَنَحْنُ الرّاسُ

    And no one on earth denies

    That mankind is the tail, and we are the head.
