1. Welcome to him from a fragrance rising
With inner surges from his lightning and flexings
١. أَهلاً بِهِ مِن رائِحٍ مُتَصَعِّدِ
بَِخَوالِجٍ مِن بَرقِهِ وَنَوابِضِ
2. The stirring of lightning as if it is flickering
With streaks that etched the sands, awakening
٢. هَزِجِ البُروقِ كَأَنَّهُ مُتَمَطِّقٌ
بِأَراقِمٍ قِلنَ الرِمالَ نَضانِضِ
3. Until those awake say about its flashing
Iraq flourished with the rain of this cloudburst
٣. حَتّى يَقولَ الساهِرونَ لَوَمضِهِ
نَضَرَ العِراقُ بِقَطرِ هَذا العارِضِ
