بِهذَا اليَوْمِ حُقِّق مَا تَمَنَّتْ
نُفُوسُ الْعُرْبِ دَهْراً بعْدَ دَهْرِ
On this day the dreams of the Arabs throughout ages were fulfilled
No day in history was ever honored with such glorification and pride
فَمَا أَحْرَاهُ فِي التّارِيخِ يَوْماً
بِتَبْجِيلٍ يُخَص بِهِ وَفَخْرِ
The kings of Dhad and leaders all came as guests
In the halls of the King of Egypt
مُلُوكُ الضَّادِ وَالرُّؤَسَاءُ حَلُّوا
ضُيُوفاً فِي رِحَابِ مَلِيكِ مِصْرِ
And they were all brothers meeting brothers
For a covenant that confirms and declares
وَكُلُّهُمُ أَخُ يَلْقَى أَخاهُ
لِمِيثاقٍ يُؤَكِّدُهُ وَأَصْرِ
O heroes of Arabism, if you thanked
Who is more deserving of thanks than you?
أَأَبْطَالَ الْعُرُوبَةِ إِنْ أَشَادَتْ
بِشُكْرِكُمُ فَمَنْ أَوْلَى بِشُكْرِ
Shall we forget all the pain you endured
In secret and openly?
أَنَنْسى كُلَّ مَا كابَدْتُمُوهُ
مِنَ الآلامِ فِي سِرٍّ وجَهْرِ
Your actions rightly astounded us
It is our duty to preserve them in every heart
لَقَدْ رَاعَتْ فِعالُكُمُ فحَقٌّ
عَلَيْنَا حِفْظُهَا فِي كلِّ صَدرِ
The era of discord is over, never to return
And this heralds the dawn of the age of harmony
مَضَى عَصْرُ الشَّتَاتِ لِغَيْرِ عَوْدٍ
وهَذَا لِلتآلُفَ بَدْءُ عَصْرِ
The lands of Dhad are in a joyous celebration
Ease has arrived after hardship
بِلاَدُ الضَّادِ فِي عِيدٍ عَمِيمٍ
تُحيِّي اليُسْرَ أَقْبَلَ بَعْدَ عُسْرِ
And these flags are but the first
Symbols of its triumph
وَلَيْسَتْ هَذِهِ الأَعْلاَمُ إِلاَّ
كَأَوَّلِ عَهْدِها أَعْلاَمَ نَصْرِ
To congratulate each of you, high in rank
Whose merits have earned him the highest esteem
لِتَهْنِىءْ كلَّ عَالي الشَّأْنِ مِنْكُمْ
مَنَاقِبُ بَلَّغَتْهُ أَجَلَّ قَدْرِ
And to congratulate the Lord of the Nile Valley
Where glory eternalized in fame resides
وَيَهْنِئْ رَبَّ وَادِي النِّيلِ فِيهَا
مَكَانُ تَجِلَّةٍ وَخُلُودُ ذِكْرِ
For the Arab League, your guidance is a bounty
And the sincerity of your support is a treasure
لِجَامِعَةِ العُرُوبَةِ مِنْ هُدَاكُمْ
ومِنْ صِدْقِ المَعُونَةِ أَيُّ ذُخْرِ
A system long hoped for by its people
In every region has been realized after so long
نِظَامٌ كَانَ مِنْ قِدَمٍ رَجَاءً
يُخَامِرُ أَهْلَهَا فِي كُلِّ قُطْرِ
It is now stronger than ever
As a tool for lasting peace
تَحَقَّق بَعْدَ لأَيٍ فَهْوَ أَقْوَى
أَدَاةٍ للسَّلاَمِ المُسْتَقِرِّ
It brings the glad tidings of all good through cooperation
And wards off all evil through understanding
يُبَشِّرُ بِالتَّآزُرِ كُلَّ خيْرٍ
وَيدْفَعُ بِالتنَاظُرِ كُلَّ شَرِّ
Its victorious past has lost none of its sharpness
If opinion fails to deter deceit
وَمَا فِي سَيْفِهِ الْمَاضِي كَلاَلٌ
إِذَا لَمْ يُغْنِ رَأْيٌ عَنْ مَكَرِّ
March on, we follow in your steps
Truth prevails over all
فَسِيرُوا إِنَّنا نَقْفُو خُطَاكُمْ
وَأَمْرُ الْحَقِّ يَعْلُو كلَّ أَمْرِ
If our dignity is sold, upon us
With our souls and specters do we take revenge
إِذَا بِيعَتْ كرَامَتُنَا عَلَيْنَا
فَبِالأَرْوَاحِ وَالأَشْبَاحِ نَشْرِي
Of no value are life and its comforts
Without a free and glorious homeland
وَمَا نِعَمُ الحَيَاةِ وَمَا مُنَاهَا
بِلاَ وَطَنٍ عَزِيزِ الشأْنِ حُرِّ
