1. We are not of the stubborn nor quarrelsome folk
But of a meadow in the Golan planted
١. لَسنا بِحَمتٍ وَلا زيمٍ وَلا صَوَرى
لَكِن بِمَرجٍ مِنَ الجَولانِ مَغروسِ
2. Who comes to us with pitcher and hearing aid
The Hejaz is a suckling of hunger and kisses
٢. يُغدى عَلَينا بِإِبريقٍ وَمُسمِعَةٍ
إِنَّ الحِجازَ رَضيعُ الجوعِ وَالبوسِ
3. We are in the Darat al-Jawwata, frightened
By the clucking of chickens and bells' din
٣. بِتنا بِدارَةِ جَوّاتا يُفَزِّعُنا
صَوتُ الدَجاجِ وَأَصواتُ النَواقيسِ
