1. The eyes wept when crying,
At the time of cannons and blood,

2. An old man sitting, whom they cast
The world was amazed at their vileness and stupidity,

3. And when will the miserable rockets shake
A mountain?! So miserable are the cowards!

4. They killed you, O symbol of steadfastness, for they saw
A towering mountain of dignity and resoluteness

5. And they saw you as a river, from which guidance is derived
The heroes of our nation and all who sacrifice

6. And they saw you as a rising star guiding towards
The path of jihad, nobility, and loyalty

7. And they saw you as a moon in deep darkness
So that our nation does not remain without illumination

8. And they saw you as a lion, if you roar they tremble
And if you growl, their terror is like hyenas

9. And they saw you as a spirit that brings the dead to life
From the grave of disgrace and humiliation of servants

10. Their betrayal was like a whore claiming to be
Chaste, with her virginity and modesty

11. Betrayal was like the stars you buried
In the ground when you came with the honorable

12. The singing was over wounds while they
Dance over the agony of the mutilated

13. This was your life then your death exposed
Their nakedness and immorality openly

14. Did they not see that blood, how much it grew
In our land ranks of martyrs?

15. How can words come alive while there is no
Difference between fools and eloquent?

16. How can the sitting become lions in battle
While our armies are sheep in vanity?

17. How can the resolute become mutilated parts
So that his death becomes the wish of the generous?

18. O pride of our nation and terror of our enemies
O you who dispelled our darkness with light

19. O lion, farewelling our misery
O you for whom our hearts bled

20. O you for whom the land wept like a bereaved woman
The lion of evil weeps for you everywhere

21. The free of the world and their loyal ones weep for you
The hope of meeting again saddens the wounds
