1. O what a fine army with discipline
And courage on the day of turmoil and provocation

2. Whose soldiers are like torrential rain, ready
To rouse their mothers as if they were their own

3. In Al-Qadisiya lay the bodies of brothers
As their mother wept with overflowing tears

4. Thanks be to God who made me
Nobler through their death, so I have compensation

5. The peace of nations lies in their readiness
For war, while the ambitious side is volatile

6. Nothing turned your neighbor away from you
Except his fear that his home would be undermined

7. A nation without power is harmless
And glory comes from arms and weapons widespread
