1. لا فخر إلا أنتَ جامِعُ شَملِهِ

    مِنهُ لَكَ المكسُوبُ والمولودُ

    There is no glory whose parts you do not unite;

    of it, yours is what is earned and what comes by birth.

  2. فإذا أنتسبت عددت أعلام العُلَى

    حيثُ البَسَالةُ والتُّقَى والجُودُ

    So when you trace your lineage, you count the luminaries of greatness,

    where valor, piety, and generosity dwell.

  3. أما القديمُ فخزرَجُ الفَخرِ الألى

    لهمُ طريفُ مكارمٍ وتليدُ

    As for the ancient lineage, it is the glorious Khazraj, who

    have noble deeds both newly won and inherited.

  4. قبلَ النبوة لم يزالوا سادة

    أملاَكُ عِزٍّ والأنامُ عبيدُ

    Before prophethood, they had always been lords,

    kings of might, while mankind were slaves,

  5. حتى إذا بُعِثَ الرسولُ مُحَمَّدٌ

    وبدا لِصُبحِ الحقِّ مِنهُ عَمُودُ

    until, when the Messenger Muhammad was sent,

    and from him a shaft of truth's dawn appeared,

  6. ودعا فعادته رؤوسُ ضلالةٍ

    حَسَداً ونَعياً فالقريبُ بعيدُ

    and he called, whereupon the leaders of error opposed him,

    out of envy and denunciation—so the near became distant—

  7. سَعِدَت به أبناءُ قيلةَ رحمةً

    سَبَقُوا إليها والسعيدُ سعيدُ

    the sons of Qayla were blessed through him with a mercy

    they were first to attain—and the blessed are blessed.

  8. وسخوا له بنفيسهِم وَنُفُوسِهِم

    فلواؤهم في نَصرِهِ مَعقُودُ

    And they freely gave him their treasures and their lives;

    so their banner is bound in his support.

  9. أموالُهُم مبذولةٌ وسيوفُهُم

    مسلُولَةٌ ومقامُهُم مشهُودُ

    Their wealth is freely offered, and their swords

    are drawn, and their stand is witnessed.

  10. أيامُ بدر والنضيرُ وخيبر

    بالصالحاتِ الباقياتِ شهودُ

    The days of Badr, al-Nadir, and Khaybar

    bear witness to enduring righteous deeds.

  11. ولدى حُنَينٍ مَشهَدٌ لَهُمُ به

    فخرٌ وذكرٌ مبدىء ومُعِيدُ

    And at Hunayn they made a stand that brought them

    glory and renown, ever new and ever renewed.

  12. كرّوا وقد مَضَتِ الهَزِيمَةُ كرّةً

    فإذا جيوشُ المشركينَ حَصِيدُ

    They charged back after the rout had passed—a single charge—

    and lo, the armies of the polytheists were mown down.

  13. رُهبان مِحرابٍ إذا جَنَّ الظلا

    مُ وَهُم إذا لاحَ النهارُ أسُودُ

    Monks at the prayer niche when darkness falls,

    and when daylight appears, they are lions.

  14. يا معشرَ الأنصارِ أنتُم لِلهُدَى

    رُكنٌ على مَرِّ الزَّمانِ شَدِيدُ

    O company of the Ansar, you are guidance's

    strong pillar through the passage of time.

  15. لكم عزائمُ لا عزائمَ مِثلُها

    كادت لها شُم الجبالِ تَمِيدُ

    Yours are resolves that no other resolves can match;

    before them, the lofty mountains nearly swayed.
