1. What did we gain from defeating the enemy
When we did not extend our hand to glory

2. The retreating deserter may do harm
Just like the insistent attacker does harm

3. The eastern kingdoms since ancient times
Take pride in kings, not in nations

4. And among the traits of the King of Japan
Is his passion for poetry and rhetoric

5. If only we had a just autocrat
Who would follow the ways of the predecessors

6. And take us to the heights out of awe
If desire does not take us there

7. O Giver of Victory, give victory to Islam
And turn this war into peace for it
