قَومي إِذا اِشتَبَكَ القَنا

قَومي إِذا اِشتَبَكَ القَنا

جَعلوا الصُدورَ لها مَسالِك

جَعلوا الصُدورَ لها مَسالِك

My people, when the spears clash,

My people when the battle is joined

My people, when the spears intertwine,

make their chests pathways for them—

Make of your breasts pathways for it.

Make of their chests a pathway for them;

اللابِسونَ دروعَهُم

اللابِسونَ دروعَهُم

فَوقَ الصُدورِ لِأَجلِ ذَلِك

فَوقَ الصُدورِ لِأَجلِ ذَلِك

those who wear their armor

Those who don armor

Those who wear their armor

over their chests for that purpose.

Over their chests for that reason.

Over their chests for that very reason.
