نحنُ في الحمراءِ أُسدُ
ما لنا في القومِ نِدُّ
We in Al Ahmar are lions
We have no equal among the people
أَمرُنا ما له رَدُّ
إننا لاموتُ الزُّؤام
Our matter cannot be reversed
We are indeed death to the enemies
نحن أبطالُ الشَّجاعَه
كلُّ فردٍ بجَماعَه
We are the heroes of courage
Each individual with the group
ساعَةً مع نصفِ ساعَه
خَصمُنا يُسقَى الحِمام
An hour with half an hour
Our opponent is given defeat
نحنُ عَشرٌ وَوحيدُ
وبنَا الأرضُ تَميدُ
We are ten and unique
With us the land shakes
هكذا تَقوى الاُسودُ
حينَ يشتَدُّ الخِصام
Thus do the lions strengthen
When the conflict intensifies
كرةَ الأَقدامِ حُومي
في هجُومٍ ووُجومِ
O ball of feet attack
In an assault and charge
واقصدِي مَرمَى الخُصومِ
وادخُلِيه بِسَلام
And aim for the goal of the opponents
And enter it peacefully
ليس مَرمى الخصمِ مَرمى
رَغمَ أبطالِه رَغما
The opponent's goal is no goal
Despite its heroes' defiance
لا نَعُدُّ الخَصمَ خَصما
حَربُه مثلُ السَّلام
We do not consider the opponent an opponent
His war is like peace
إنَّنا عُجمٌ وَعُربُ
كُلُّنا للخَطبِ خَطبُ
We are Persians and Arabs
We are all zealous for the cause
وإذا ما اشتَدَّ حَربُ
نَلتقيها بابتِسام
And if the war intensifies
We meet it with a smile
إنَّ للصَّامِ لَفَخرَا
وَلَها عِزَّا ونَصرا
Glory be to Al-Ahly
It has pride and victory
فَلتَعِش لِلصَّامِ ذِكرى
إنَّ إسمَ الصَّامِ سَام
So long live the memory of Al-Ahly
The name of Al-Ahly is sublime
أنتِ مِن رِجلٍ لِرَأسِ
بينَ إرسالٍ وحبسِ
You are from a foot to a head
Between sending and keeping
وبِكَفٍّ لَن تُمَسِّي
حينَ يَقوى الإِزدحَام
And with a palm that will not fail
When the crowds intensify
نحنُ أصحابُ السَّواعِد
فَنُداني ونُباعِد
We are the owners of strong arms
So we get close and distant
نَترُكُ الخَصمَ المُعانِد
في احتِشامٍ واحتِدام
We leave the stubborn opponent
In humility and fervor
لو تَرَانا في صِراعِ
وهجومِ ودفاعِ
If you could see us in the struggle
And attack and defense
وارتفاعٍ وارتجاعٍ
وَوُثوبٍ للأمَام
And rise and retreat
And surge forward
يا لِقَومي يا لِقَومي
أىَّ يومٍ أىَّ يومِ
Oh my people, oh my people
What day, what day
سِيمَ مَرمانا بِضَيمِ
بل حضرامٌ أن يُضام
Rumors have wronged us
But we are honorable, we will not be oppressed
خمرةَ النَّصرِ شَرِبنا
إذ لِعبنا فَغَلَبنا
We drank the wine of victory
When we played and won
وَطَرِبنا ما طَرِبنا
هكذا شَأنُ الكِرام
And we were thrilled as we were thrilled
Such is the way of the generous
حارسُ المَرمى كَصَقرِ
واقِفٌ فِي بابِ وَكرِ
The goalkeeper is like an eagle
Standing at the mouth of its lair
بحَمَاسٍ وبِمَكرِ
حارسٌ بَابَ المَقَام
With enthusiasm and cunning
A keeper guarding the position
والثَّنَا مِنَّا يُشَاد
ودُعَانا في ازدِياد
The two of us are supported
And called upon to increase
نحو سُلطانِ البِلاد
ولِباشاها الهُمام
Towards the sultan of the country
And its ambitious pasha
