أَنا عَلِيٌّ فَاِسأَلوني تُخبَروا

ثُمَ اِبرُزوا إِلى الوَغى أَو أَدبِروا

I am Ali, so ask me and be informed,

I am Ali, so ask of me and you shall be informed,

Then go forth to battle or turn back.

Then come forth to the tumult of war, or turn and flee.

سَيفي حُسامٌ وَسِناني يُزهِرُ

مِنّا النَبِيُّ الطاهِرُ المُطَهَّرُ

My sword is sharp and my spear blossoms,

My sword is a cleaving blade, and my spearhead gleams,

From us is the pure and purified Prophet,

From us comes the Prophet, the pure, the purified,

وَحَمزَةُ الخَيرِ وَصِنوي جَعفَرُ

لَهُ جَناحٌ في الجِنانِ أَخضَرُ

And Hamza the good, and my two sons Ja'far,

And Hamza of Goodness, and my brother Ja'far,

He has a wing in Paradise ever green,

Who possesses a green wing in the gardens of Paradise.

ذا أَسَدُ اللَهِ وَفيهِ مَفخَرٌ

وَفاطِمٌ عُرسي وَفيها مَفخَرُ

This is the lion of God, in him is pride,

That one is the Lion of God, and in him is glory,

And Fatima my bride, in her is pride,

And Fatima is my spouse, and in her is glory.

هَذا لِهَذا وَاِبنُ هِندٍ مَحجَرٌ

مُذَبذَبٌ مُطَّرِدٌ مُؤَخَّرُ

This is for that, and the son of Hind is stoned,

This virtue is ours, while the son of Hind is shut out,

Driven off, expelled, pushed back.

Wavering, driven away, and left far behind.
