1. With you, happiness has graciously brought us joy
The shining star has generously gifted us

2. You appeared, so greetings, your exceptional light shines
Embarrassing the cheek of the east until it blushed red

3. It's not that the sun flames its fire on high
Rather, people have clothed it with dust and clouds

4. Since you rose like the dawn of happiness
It touches the face of the horizon until first light

5. That bright dawn appeared to the land
So I said the dawn of hope appeared to the rain droplets

6. I saw you crowned with perfection
Your body adorned with majesty and glory

7. You turned to the goodness of Damascus to greet it
With your gentle traits known in the lands blooming

8. A thousand gardens cried out joyfully
Echoing thanks with intermingled song

9. You gathered the symbols of wisdom, understanding and intellect
As if you were depicted from the essence of gems

10. Praises inspired the tongues to eulogy
And stirred the heart of poetry until it was enflamed

11. Your patience has an opinion like an unsheathed sword
When it delves into the night of problems, it flashes

12. And a resolve in managing affairs and chastity
With which you opened the path of justice in the universe

13. And kind glances that pour blessings and contentment
If you ever chanced upon one in need of saving

14. Had you met violence face-to-face
On that great towering mountain it would shake

15. Oh Rashid who came to guide people as a guide
Clarifying the path like light shining in the darkness

16. With you, Syria has a supporter and rescuer
To its thresholds, every person has sought refuge
