أَقولُ وَالأَتراكُ قَد أَزمَعَت

مِصرَ إِلى حَربِ الأَعاريبِ

I say, and the Turks have intended

Egypt towards the war of the Bedouins

رَبِّ كَما مَلَّكتَها يوسُفَ

الصِدّيقَ مِن أَولادِ يَعقوبِ

My Lord, as you gave it to Joseph

The truthful, from the sons of Jacob

يَملِكُها في عَصرِنا يوسُفُ الصادِقُ

مِن أَولادِ أَيّوبِ

It will be ruled in our time by Joseph the honest

From the sons of Job

مَن لَم يَزَل ضَرّاب هامِ العِدا

حَقّاً وَضَرّابَ العَراقيبِ

He who has always been striking the zealous enemies

Rightfully, and striking the foreigners
