سأهجر داراً شدت بالعز ركنها

سأهجر داراً شدت بالعز ركنها

ولو لم اكن شهماً لذل عزيزها

ولو لم اكن شهماً لذل عزيزها

I shall abandon a dwelling whose pillar I raised with honor.

I will abandon a house though it has pillars of glory

And had I not been noble-hearted, its honored one would have been humbled.

Even if I were not magnanimous, its glory would still humble me

وقمت بها في همة هاشمية

وقمت بها في همة هاشمية

أجمع من أشتاتها وأحوزها

أجمع من أشتاتها وأحوزها

And I took charge of it with Hashimite resolve,

And I stood in it with Hashimite determination

gathering its scattered parts and taking possession of it.

To bring together its fragments and possess it

واوقدت ناراً في دجى الليل للقرى

واوقدت ناراً في دجى الليل للقرى

أحيي بها أضيافها واجيزها

أحيي بها أضيافها واجيزها

And I kindled a fire in the darkness of night to offer hospitality;

And I lit a fire in the darkness of night for the villages

with it I welcome its guests and bestow gifts upon them.

With it I welcome its guests and reward them
