ما عَزَّ ذُو الباطِل كَلاّ وَلاَ

قَدْ ذَلَّ ذُو الْحَقِّ منَ الْعالَمِ

The bearer of falsehood has never known honor—no, never.

The bearer of truth has indeed been abased by the world.

بِذَا جَرَتْ عَادَاتُ رَبِّ السَّما

فانْتَظِرِ الثّأْرَ عَلَى الظّالِمِ

Thus run the ways of the Lord of heaven;

so await retribution against the oppressor.
