أَيُّها الساعي عَلى آثارِنا
نَحنُ مَن لَستَ بِسَعّاءٍ مَعَه
O you who follow in our footsteps
We are not with you when the bows collide
نَحنُ أَودٌ حينَ تَصطَكُّ القَنا
وَالعَوالي لِلعَوالي مُشرَعَه
And the highlands have opened their heights
On the day when the white swords shine bright
يَومَ تُبدي البيضُ عَن لَمعِ البُرى
وَلِأَهلِ الدارِ فيها صَعصَعَه
And for the people of the house discord stirs
Then in us is a fire seen for the villages
ثُمَّ فينا لِلقِرى نارٌ يُرى
عِندَها لِلضَيفِ رُحبٌ وَسِعَه
Where for the guest are breadth and welcome
