1. إنَّ فَوْقَ البُروجِ عَرْشَ السَّماءِ

    اسْقِطوهُ مِنْ بَعْدِ بُرْجِ الجَلاءِ

    Above the constellations lies the Throne of Heaven

    Cast it down beyond the radiant tower

  2. وَاحْرِقوا أَوْجُهَ المَلائِكِ فيهِ

    بَعْدَ حَرْقِ الأَطْفالِ والأَبْرِياءِ

    And burn the faces of the angels within

    After burning the children and the innocent

  3. وَامْلَأُوا الأَرْضَ والسَّماءَ دَوِيًّا

    يَمْنَعُ اللهَ مِنْ سَماعِ الدُّعاءِ

    Fill the earth and sky with a resounding din

    That prevents God from hearing supplication

  4. وَاجْلِسوا في مَكانِهِ وَأَعيدوا

    قِصَّةَ الخَلْقِ مِنْ بُروجِ العَلاءِ

    Sit in His place and retell

    The story of creation from the towers of splendor

  5. وَارْقُصوا في سَمائِهِ كَيْفَ شِئْتُمْ

    فَوْقَ أَجْسادِنا عَلى الأَشْلاءِ

    Dance in His heavens however you wish

    Above our bodies strewn in pieces

  6. أَنْتُمُ شَعْبُهُ ، ونَحْنُ سَنَبْقَى

    في دُروبِ الصُّمودِ شَعْبَ الإِباءِ !

    You are His people, while we shall remain

    On the paths of steadfastness, the people of determination!

  7. إِنْ تَكُنْ تَسْقُطُ البُروجُ عَلَيْنا

    وتَمُدُّ السَّماءَ بِالشُّهَداءِ ....

    If the towers fall upon us

    And the sky rains down with martyrs....

  8. فَلَنا مِنْ مَمَاتِنا يَوْمُ بَعْثٍ

    ولَنَا رَغْبَةٌ بِطُولِ بَقاءِ

    For us, there is a day of resurrection from our death

    And we have a longing for longevity

  9. ولَنَا مِنْ زُنودِنا أَلْفُ بُرْجٍ

    تَصِلُ الأَرْضَ عِزَّةً بِالسَّماءِ ...

    And from our arms, a thousand towers

    Connecting the earth with the sky in dignity...
