مُذ شارفَ صُبحُ خَدِّكَ الأَمساءَ
لاقَيتُI encountered صَباحَthe morning of مَعشَرٍa people قدalready ساءَhad turned bad
لاقَيتُ صَباحَ مَعشَرٍ قد ساءَ
Since the dawn of your cheek drew near to evening,
Since the dawn approached your cheek's horizon
I encountered a people's morning that had turned grim.
I have met a morning of people in misery
لاmay not أَفلَحَprosper خَيلُthe cavalry of خارجيٍّa rebel جاءَwho came
لا أَفلَحَ خَيلُ خارجيٍّ جاءَ
يَسعىhe strives لِيبيدَto destroy هَذِهِthis الخَضراءَverdant expanse
يَسعى لِيبيدَ هَذِهِ الخَضراءَ
May the cavalry of a rebel who came never prosper,
The horses of an invading army will not succeed
Striving to destroy this verdant expanse.
As they try to destroy this green oasis
