يا مَن إِذا حال أَخٌ لا يَحول
وَمَن عَلى الدَهرِ بِهِ نَستَطيل
O you when a brother is in need and cannot help himself
And we rely on you to carry us through time
عارَضَنا بَعدَكَ ما شَرحُهُ
إِذا اِختَصَرناهُ عَريضٌ طَويل
After you left, we faced endless troubles
Brief when told but long when endured
وَنَحنُ في ساعَتِنا هَذِهِ
بَينَ فِصادٍ وَدِماءٍ تَسيل
And now in this moment
Between clashing swords and blood spilt
وَدارُنا مِن طيبِها جَنَّةٌ
لَو أَنُّهُ كانَ بِها سَلسَبيل
Our home was once a paradise
If only water flowed through it still
فَإِن تَفَضَّلتَ عَلَينا بِها
فَهِمَّةٌ حُسنى وَرَأيٌ جَميل
So if you would be so kind as to grant us this
A noble intention and sound advice
أُحيِ بِها المَوتى وَلا تَغفَلَن
عَنهُم فَفيهِم لَكَ أَجرٌ جَزيل
Revive the dead, do not neglect them
For in them lies abundant reward for you
لا تَمنَعِ الرَيَّ عِطاشاً فَما
مِن مَورِدٍ إِلّا إِلَيهِ سَبيل
Do not forbid the rain from the thirsty
For all paths lead to it in the end
وَهَذِهِ جُملَةُ ما عِندَنا
وَحَسبُنا اللَهُ وَنِعمَ الوَكيل
This sums up what we have to say
God is all we need, the best Guardian
