1. صفاقس كانت من الميل عن

    سُبل الهدى في ليل ديجور

    Sfax was, because of straying from

    the paths of guidance, in a pitch-black night.

  2. والان ليلُ الظّلم عنها انجلى

    مُذ لاح فيها كوكبُ النّور

    And now the night of oppression has lifted from her,

    since the star of light appeared within her.
