أيامكمْ يا بني الجراح قد جَرَحَتْ

كُلَّ القلوب ففيها منكُمُ ثارُ

O days of you, O sons of wounds

You have wounded all hearts, for in them from you is vengeance

ما منكُمُ رجلٌ تَمَّتْ رياستُه

إلا مَشُومٌ عظيم الكِبر جَبَّارُ

There is none among you whose leadership was completed

Except ill-omened, mighty, tyrannical

لا قَدَّس اللَه بالإقبال دولتَكُم

فإن إقبالكمْ لِلناس إدبارُ

May God not hallow your state through prosperity

For your prosperity for people is decline
