لا تغترب عن وطنٍ

لا تغترب عن وطنٍ

واذكر تصاريفَ النّوى

واذكر تصاريفَ النّوى

Do not live away from your homeland,

Do not estrange yourself from a homeland

And remember the vicissitudes of separation.

And remember the vicissitudes of fate

اما تَرى الغُصن اذا

اما تَرى الغُصن اذا

ما فارقَ الأَصلَ ذَوى

ما فارقَ الأَصلَ ذَوى

Do you not see how the branch, when

For don't you see that a branch when

It parts from its root, withers?

It is separated from its root withers away
