صَفِيَّةُ قُومي ولا تَعْجَزي

وَبَكّي النّسَاءَ على حَمْزَةِ

O Safiyya, arise, do not despair,

And let the women weep for Hamza,

ولا تَسْأَمي أنْ تُطِيلي البُكَا

عَلَى أَسَدِ الله في الهِزَّةِ

Do not tire of prolonging the weeping,

For the lion of Allah in the battle,

فَقَدْ كَانَ عِزّاً لأَيْتامِنَا

وَلَيْثَ المَلاَحِمِ في البِزَّةِ

For he was the shelter for our orphans,

And the fierce warrior in the fight,

يُرِيدُ بذَاكَ رِضَا احْمَدٍ

وَرُضْوانَ ذي العرشِ والعِزَّةِ

With that he seeks the pleasure of Ahmed,

And the satisfaction of the Lord of the Throne and Might.
