يا خَير مَن حلّ في حلٍّ وَفي حَرَم
وَمَن سَما الخَلق في جود وَفي كَرَم
O best of those who settled in settlements and sanctuaries
And transcended people in generosity and nobility
فَكَم بَدا لَك مِن عزٍّ وَمِن حشم
وَيَوم مَكة إِذ أشرفت مِن أُمم
So much glory and awe has appeared from you
And the day of Mecca when you surpassed the nations
يَضيق عَنها فجاج الوَعث وَالسَهل
طَوائف خضعت شم الأُنوف لَها
The mountain passes were too narrow for it
Tribes submitted, their noses in the dust for it
وسادة مَن رَآها عَن حجاء لَها
أَعلامها زانَها يَوم الكِفاح بِها
And the chiefs who saw it bowed down to it
Its banners adorned it on the day of battle with it
خَوافق ضاقَ ذرع الخافِقين لَها
في قائم مِن عجاج الخَيل وَالإبل
Al-Khawafiq narrowed for the galloping horses and camels
In columns of the clattering hooves of horses and camels
كَتائب رَوَت الأَخبار عَن كتب
وَقادة قادَها للحرب خَير بَني
Squadrons that related the news from books
And leaders who led them to battle, the best of sons
لَم يعيها الشَد في أَخذ وَفي طَلَب
وَجَحفل قَذف الأَرجاء ذي لجب
It did not weary them, the hardship in raiding and seeking
And regiments that thrust into the rugged mountains
عَرَمرم كَزهاء اللَيل منسدل
اللَه بِالنَصر وَالتَوفيق يكرمهم
Clashing like the darkness of night descending
God will honor them with victory and success
وَفي مَضايقهم لا شَك يَرحمهُم
وَكَيفَ يخزيهم المَولى وَيحرمهم
And in their straits, no doubt, He will have mercy on them
How would the Master disgrace them and deprive them?
وَأَنتَ صَلى عَلَيك اللَه تقدمهم
في بَهو إشراق نور مِنك مُكتمل
While you, may God's blessings be upon you, lead them
In an effulgence of light from you made complete
مُسَربلاً بِدُروع العز مُحتبيا
كَأَنك الضيغم الرئبال مُنتَصبا
Robed in the armor of glory, sheltered
As if you were the lofty standard, upright
وَأَنتَ يا مَن سَما الأَعجام وَالعربا
تُنير فَوق أَغر الوَجه مُنتَجِبا
And you, O highest of Arabs and non-Arabs
Illuminating above the most radiant of faces, drawing near
مُتَوجاً بعَزيز النَصر مُقتبل
أَضحى بِكَ الدين مَختوماً وَمُبتَديا
Crowned with the mighty victory, drawing ahead
Through you, religion has been concluded and initiated
وَقائم الشرك أَضحى مِنكَ منحنيا
كَأَنَّني بِكَ لا مَولاي مُحتبيا
And the confederation of polytheism has bowed down before you
As if I see you, my Master, taking refuge
تَسمو أمام جُنود اللَه مُرتَديا
ثَوب الوَقار لأَمر اللَه مُمتثل
Rising before God's armies, wearing
The garb of dignity for God's command, compliant
سَكينة اللَه يا هادي عَلَيكَ همت
وَمِنكَ شَمس المَعالي في الوَرى وَسمت
O Guide, God's tranquility descended upon you
And from you the sun of glories rose in the land
وَحينَ صفت جُنود اللَه وَانتَظَمت
خشعت تَحت بَهاء العز حينَ سَمَت
And when God's armies stood in formation
They were humbled beneath the splendor of glory when it rose
بِكَ المَهابة فعل الخاضع الوَجل
منحت مَكة يَوم الفَتح وَالحرما
Through you awe overcame the reverent
You gave Mecca on the day of opening and sanctuary
بوطئ نَعلك يا مَن بِالفَخار سَما
وَالبَيت قَد كانَ يَبكي قَبل ذاكَ دَما
With your sandal, O you who transcended with glory
The House had wept blood before that
وَقَد تَباشر أَملاك السَماء بِما
مَلَكت إِذ نلت مِنهُ غاية الأَمل
And the angels of heaven rejoiced in what
It had ruled when it attained the pinnacle of hope
أتيت أَعداد دين اللَه خَير تَقي
بِما يَفوق عَلى الطُوفان وَالغَرَق
You came in numbers, best of the pious
With more than the flood and the drowning
فَمِن جُنودك حزب الشرق في أَرق
وَالأَرض تَرجف مِن زَهو وَمِن فَرق
So among your armies are the east in vigilance
And the earth quakes in rapture and severing
وَالجَو يَزهو إِشراقاً مِن الجَذل
لَكَ المُلوك أَقَرت في أَسرتها
And the atmosphere glitters with the radiance of unsheathing
For you the kings acknowledged in their captivity
وَقادة الملك قيدت في أَزمتها
وَجملة النَصر قَد جاءَت برمتها
And the leaders of the kingdom bound in their crises
And the sum of victory has come in its entirety
وَالخَيل تَختال زَهواً في أعنتها
وَالعيس يَنسال زَهواً في ثنى الجَدل
And the horses prance in the pride of their forelocks
And the stallions flow in the bend of the creek
