1. سقى اللهُ حُرّاً رعى عهدَنا

    وأنصَفَ مِن جَورِ أيامِنا

    May God give drink to a noble man who honored our covenant

    and gave us redress for the tyranny of our days.

  2. رأى الدَّهرَ يخطف مَنْ حولَنا

    فأسلَفَنا حَرَماً آمِنا

    He saw Time snatching away those around us,

    so he provided us beforehand with a safe sanctuary.
