ُحَضِّضُ قومي باللقاء ومعشري

ُحَضِّضُ قومي باللقاء ومعشري

وما زالَ قومي يَخضِبونَ العَواليا

وما زالَ قومي يَخضِبونَ العَواليا

I urge my people and my clan to battle,

I urge my people to meet and my companions,

And my people have never ceased staining their long spears.

And my people continue to dye the heights red,

وما حادَ عن جَمعَي نَهاوَندَ جَمعُنا

وما حادَ عن جَمعَي نَهاوَندَ جَمعُنا

وما زال قومي يمنعون المَواليا

وما زال قومي يمنعون المَواليا

And our host did not turn aside from Nahavand’s two hosts,

And my group has not strayed from our gathering,

And my people have never ceased defending their allies.

And my people continue to forbid the disloyal.

فإِن نلتُ ما نلتُ الغَداةَ فإِنني

فإِن نلتُ ما نلتُ الغَداةَ فإِنني

لأَلقى لدى الهيجاءِ فيها الدَواهيا

لأَلقى لدى الهيجاءِ فيها الدَواهيا

So if I have received what I have received this morning, then indeed I

For if I attain what I attained at dawn,

Do face dreadful perils there amid the tumult of battle:

I will find among the excitements there the remedies.

فُيُولاً أَراها كالجبال أَمامنا

فُيُولاً أَراها كالجبال أَمامنا

تُشَيِّبُ منّا في الحروب النَّواصيا

تُشَيِّبُ منّا في الحروب النَّواصيا

Elephants I see like mountains before us,

So I see the armies before us like mountains

Which turn our forelocks gray in war.

Greying our forelocks in wars.
