قومي إِلى رَبِّكِ مُختارَةً

قومي إِلى رَبِّكِ مُختارَةً

بِغَيرِ ذُنّارٍ وَزُنّارِ

بِغَيرِ ذُنّارٍ وَزُنّارِ

Rise to your Lord of your own free will,

Arise to your Lord as His chosen one,

Without a dhunnār or a zunnār girdle.

Without any guilt or sin,

شَرَّفَني اللَهُ وَلا آ

شَرَّفَني اللَهُ وَلا آ

مُلُ الجَنَّةَ بَل عِتقاً مِنَ النارِ

مُلُ الجَنَّةَ بَل عِتقاً مِنَ النارِ

God has honored me, and I do not

Allah has given me honor, and I will not

Hope for Paradise, but for release from the Fire.

Fill Paradise, but rather free from the Fire,

ما قيمَتي فَلسٌ وَفي حِكمِ

ما قيمَتي فَلسٌ وَفي حِكمِ

هِ أَنِيَ أودى أَلفَ دينارِ

هِ أَنِيَ أودى أَلفَ دينارِ

I am not worth a copper coin; yet in His judgment

I am worthless coins, yet in His wisdom,

My blood-price is a thousand dinars.

He ransomed me for thousands of gold coins.
