1. إيهٍ عبدالعزيز يومك يوم الضاد

    مجداً         وانك        المقدام

    Go on, Abdulaziz! Your day is the day of ḍād,

    a day of glory—and you are the dauntless one.

  2. شدتها   دولةً   بعزمك  تختال،

    فداها      الأرواح     والأجسام

    You built it into a state that strides proudly through your resolve;

    souls and bodies are its ransom.

  3. عززتها  السيوف  شرقاً وغرباً

    وأشادت      بذكرها     الأقلام

    Swords strengthened it east and west,

    and pens sang the praises of its name.

  4. وتَبَوَّأتَ    بين   قومك   عرشاً

    وشاده  العزم  والندى  والحسام

    You took your place on a throne among your people,

    and resolve, generosity, and the keen sword built it.

  5. قد  أحاطت  به القلوب وراحت

    تتباهى        بودة        الأقوام

    Hearts have encircled it, while

    the peoples have begun to glory in his affection.

  6. فتقدم    بأمة   الضاد   وانهض

    بلأمانيّ      فالتواني      حرام

    So lead the nation of ḍād forward, and rise

    with aspirations—for indolence is forbidden.
