أَلَم تَرَيا أَنَّ الجَوادَ اِبنَ مَعمَرٍ

لَهُ راحَتا غَيثٍ يَفيضُ مُديمُها

Have you not seen that the steed, son of Ma'mar

Has the ease of abundant rain overflowing its rivers

إِذ جائَهُ السُؤآلُ فادَت عَلَيهِمُ

سِجالُ يَدَيهِ فَاِستَقَلَّ عَديمُها

When the questioning came upon them

The clashing of its hands overpowered the destitute

نَمَتهُ بَنو تَيمِ اِبنِ مُرَّةَ لِلعُلى

وَحاطَت حِماهُ مِن قُرَيشٍ قُرومُها

The Bani Taym brought it up for greatness

And its protectors from Quraysh surrounded its settlements

وَما يَبلُغُ البَحرانِ مِن آلِ غالِبٍ

إِذا هُزَّ يَوماً لِلنَوالِ كَريمُها

And the two seas do not reach what the family of Ghālib attains

Whenever its generosity is stirred for the noble ones

وَهُم ساسَةُ الإِسلامِ وَالقادَةُ الأُلى

يَقومُ عَلى الحُكّامِ يَوماً حُكومُها

And they are the leaders of Islam and the foremost guides

Who will one day rule over the rulers and their regimes
