لَكُم حَرَمُ اللَهِ المُعَظَّمُ لا لَنا
وَبَطحاؤُهُ وَالأَخشَبانِ وَزَمزَمُ
Yours is God’s exalted Sanctuary, not ours—
its broad valley, the Two Akhshabs, and Zamzam;
وَما رَدَّ شِعبَ المَأزَمَينِ عَلى مِنىً
وَجَمعٍ وَما وارى السِتارُ المُحَرَّمُ
and whatever the ravine of the Two Passes encloses on Mina’s side,
and Jamʿ, and whatever the sacred curtain conceals.
لَئِن لَم تُصَبِّحكُم بِها مُستَغيرَةٌ
كَصَكَّةِ أَنفِ المَرءِ يَتبَعُها الدَمُ
If no raiding troop falls upon you there at dawn,
like a blow to a man’s nose, with blood following it—
