إِذا رُمتَ المَكارِمَ مِن كَريمٍ

إِذا رُمتَ المَكارِمَ مِن كَريمٍ

فَيَمِّم مَن بَنى لِلَّهِ بَيتا

فَيَمِّم مَن بَنى لِلَّهِ بَيتا

If you seek noble deeds from a noble man,

When you aim for nobility, be noble

Then turn toward him who built a house for God.

Like one who built a house for God

فَذاكَ اللَيثُ مَن يَحمي حِماهُ

فَذاكَ اللَيثُ مَن يَحمي حِماهُ

وَيُكرِمُ ضَيفَهُ حَيّاً وَمَيتا

وَيُكرِمُ ضَيفَهُ حَيّاً وَمَيتا

For he is the lion who guards his domain

For he is the lion who protects his own

And honors his guest, in life and in death.

And honors his guest alive or dead
