نَزَلَت بِساحَةِ أَهلِكَ الأَفراحُ

نَزَلَت بِساحَةِ أَهلِكَ الأَفراحُ

يادارُ ما عَقَبَ المَساءَ صَباحُ

يادارُ ما عَقَبَ المَساءَ صَباحُ

May joys descend upon your people's courtyard,

Joy descended in the courtyard of your family

O house, as long as morning follows evening.

O house, morning follows not the evening

وَبَقيتُمُ عامِري أَوطانِها

وَبَقيتُمُ عامِري أَوطانِها

فَهيَ الجُسومُ وَأَنتُمُ الأَرواحُ

فَهيَ الجُسومُ وَأَنتُمُ الأَرواحُ

And may you remain inhabiting its abodes,

You remained inhabited, homeland of its people

For they are the bodies, and you are the souls.

It is the body, and you all are its soul

دارٌ أَقامَ بِها السُرورُ فَما لَهُ

دارٌ أَقامَ بِها السُرورُ فَما لَهُ

عَن أَهلِها عُمرَ الزَمانِ بَراحُ

عَن أَهلِها عُمرَ الزَمانِ بَراحُ

A house where joy has settled, never to

A house where happiness resided, so it has no

Leave its people for as long as time endures.

Lifespan from its people, time passes by

جُمِعَت لِبانيها الفَضائِلُ كُلُّها

جُمِعَت لِبانيها الفَضائِلُ كُلُّها

فَلَها غُدُوٌ نَحوَها وَرَواحُ

فَلَها غُدُوٌ نَحوَها وَرَواحُ

All virtues have been gathered for its builder;

All virtues gathered for its builder

So they journey toward it morning and evening.

It has a rising toward it and a setting

أَضحَت لَهُ فَلَكُ السُرورِ بُروجُها

أَضحَت لَهُ فَلَكُ السُرورِ بُروجُها

نُدَماؤُها وَنُجومُها الأَقداحُ

نُدَماؤُها وَنُجومُها الأَقداحُ

For him it has become the celestial sphere of joy; its constellations

Its happiness celestial sphere stars became for him

Are its drinking companions, and its stars are the goblets.

Its drinking-companions and stars are wine-cups
