أَلاَ قُلْ لِمَوْلانَا الإمامِ مَناخُنَا

أَلاَ قُلْ لِمَوْلانَا الإمامِ مَناخُنَا

بِحُصْنِ مَسارٍ لا بِحُصْنِ شِبَامِ

بِحُصْنِ مَسارٍ لا بِحُصْنِ شِبَامِ

Lo, tell our lord, the Imam: our encampment

Say to our Imam, our refuge is in Masar's fortress, not Shibam's

is at the fortress of Masar, not the fortress of Shibam.

We hope our army will have access to controlled fertile valleys

وإنّا نُرَجِّي أن يُتَاحَ لجَيْشِنا

وإنّا نُرَجِّي أن يُتَاحَ لجَيْشِنا

ذُرَى مُتْوَحٍ مُنْقَادَةً بِزِمامِ

ذُرَى مُتْوَحٍ مُنْقَادَةً بِزِمامِ

And we hope that our army may be granted

If we ascend from Masar, hitting with swords the heads of the unjust

the heights of Mutwah, yielding to the rein.

The whole land will shake with fear and awe

إذَا ما عَلَوْنا مِنْ مَسار شَمارِخاً

إذَا ما عَلَوْنا مِنْ مَسار شَمارِخاً

صَفَعْنَا بِصَعْفانٍ رُؤوسَ طَغامِ

صَفَعْنَا بِصَعْفانٍ رُؤوسَ طَغامِ

When we ascend the towering peaks of Masar,

Including Hijaz, Najd and Tihama

we slap the rabble's heads at Sa'fan.

وتَهْتَزُّ كُلُّ الأَرْضِ رُعْباً وهَيْبَةً

وتَهْتَزُّ كُلُّ الأَرْضِ رُعْباً وهَيْبَةً

حِجَازٌ بها مَعْ نَجْدِها وتِهامِ

حِجَازٌ بها مَعْ نَجْدِها وتِهامِ

And all the earth trembles in terror and awe—

Hijaz included, along with its Najd and Tihama.
